Assume that the outer conductor of the cylindrical capacitor in Example 3-16 is grounded and that the inner conductor is maintained at a potential V0.

a) Find the electric field intensity, E(a), at the surface of the inner conductor.


b) With the inner radius, b, of the outer conductor fixed, find a so that E(a)is minimized.


c) Find this minimum E(a).


d) Determine the capacitance under the conditions of part (b).
