To solve the problem of calculating the capacitance of two cylindrical capacitors, we will follow these steps: ### Given Data: 1. Length of both capacitors, \( l = 10 \, \text{cm} = 0.1 \, \text{m} \) 2. For the first capacitor: - Inner radius, \( a = 2 \, \text{mm} = 0.002 \, \text{m} \) - Outer radius, \( b = 4 \, \text{mm} = 0.004 \, \text{m} \) 3. For the second capacitor: ...
