An Intiative by Sri Chaitanya

The resistance of the system along the cylindrical axis is $\frac{2 \sqrt{l}}{3 A σ_{0}}$

The current density is constant throughout the length of the cylinder.

The electric field E(x) at each point in the cylinder is $E (x) = \frac{5 V_{0} \sqrt{x}}{2 l^{3 / 2}}$

The electric field E(x) at each point in the cylinder is $E (x) = \frac{3 V_{0} \sqrt{x}}{2 l^{3 / 2}}$

Detailed Solution

$(i) d R = \frac{1}{σ (x)} \frac{d x}{A} = \frac{\sqrt{x} d x}{A l σ_{0}}$

$∴ R = \int_{0}^{l} d R = \frac{1}{A l σ_{0}} \int_{0}^{l} \sqrt{x} d x = \frac{2 \sqrt{l}}{3 A σ_{0}}$

$(i i) \frac{V_{0}}{R} = \frac{3 A σ_{0} V_{0}}{2 \sqrt{l}}$

The current density, $J = \frac{i}{A} = \frac{3 σ_{0} v_{0}}{2 \sqrt{l}}$

Electric field, $E (x) = \frac{J}{σ (x)} = \frac{3 V_{0} \sqrt{x}}{2 l^{3 / 2}}$
