The concept of cylindrical capacitance is required to solve the problem.
Initially, the value of capacitance per unit length is calculated by using the inner and outer radius of the cylindrical conductor and the length of the cylindrical capacitor. Then, the charge on the inner and outer conductor is determined by using the relation between capacitance, voltage between the conductors and charge.
The expression for capacitance per unit length is,
Here, C is the capacitance, L is the length of the capacitor, k is the dielectric constant, is the permittivity of free space, is the inner radius, and is the outer radius.
