In radio frequency, current practically flow ONLY on the surface of a conductor. Consider a coaxial cable with a inner conductor of radius a, and a grounded metal shield of inner radius b and outer radius c as shown. Total current in the inner conductor is I. Plot B field as a function of r. What is the surface current density at r = a? At r = b?

(b) Take the gradient of this V to find the electric field at that point (0,0,z). (c) Apply the electric potential from part (a) to a 2-dimensional disk.

What is the B field of an infinite wire carrying a current I at a distance d away? Use this result to find the B field of an infinite current sheet. A simple model is this: Infinitely long straight conductors with square cross sections and each carrying current I are laid side-by-side to form an infinite current sheet as shown in figure. The conductors lie in the xy-plane, are parallel to the y-axis and carry current in the +y direction. There are n conductors per unit length along the x-axis.
