The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to calculate the total current flowing through a cylindrical wire with a given current density function. The current density \( J(r) \) is defined as: \[ J(r) = J_0 \left(1 - \frac{r}{R}\right) \] where \( J_0 \) is a constant, \( r \) is the radial distance from the center of the cylinder, and \( R \) is the radius of the cylinder. ### Step-by-step Solution: 1. **Define the Elemental Area**: The elemental area \( dA \) of a cylindrical shell at radius \( r \) with thickness \( dr \) is given by: \[ dA = 2\pi r \, dr \] 2. **Define the Elemental Current**: The elemental current \( dI \) through this area can be expressed as: \[ dI = J(r) \, dA = J_0 \left(1 - \frac{r}{R}\right) \cdot (2\pi r \, dr) \] 3. **Set Up the Integral for Total Current**: To find the total current \( I \) from \( r = 0 \) to \( r = \frac{R}{4} \), we integrate \( dI \): \[ I = \int_0^{R/4} dI = \int_0^{R/4} J_0 \left(1 - \frac{r}{R}\right) (2\pi r \, dr) \] 4. **Simplify the Integral**: Substitute \( J_0 \) and \( 2\pi \) outside the integral: \[ I = 2\pi J_0 \int_0^{R/4} \left(1 - \frac{r}{R}\right) r \, dr \] 5. **Expand the Integrand**: The integrand can be expanded: \[ I = 2\pi J_0 \int_0^{R/4} \left(r - \frac{r^2}{R}\right) \, dr \] 6. **Calculate the Integral**: Now, calculate the integral: \[ I = 2\pi J_0 \left( \int_0^{R/4} r \, dr - \frac{1}{R} \int_0^{R/4} r^2 \, dr \right) \] The integrals can be computed as: \[ \int_0^{R/4} r \, dr = \left[\frac{r^2}{2}\right]_0^{R/4} = \frac{(R/4)^2}{2} = \frac{R^2}{32} \] \[ \int_0^{R/4} r^2 \, dr = \left[\frac{r^3}{3}\right]_0^{R/4} = \frac{(R/4)^3}{3} = \frac{R^3}{192} \] 7. **Substitute Back into the Total Current Expression**: Substitute these results back into the expression for \( I \): \[ I = 2\pi J_0 \left( \frac{R^2}{32} - \frac{1}{R} \cdot \frac{R^3}{192} \right) \] Simplifying this gives: \[ I = 2\pi J_0 \left( \frac{R^2}{32} - \frac{R^2}{192} \right) \] 8. **Combine the Terms**: To combine the fractions, find a common denominator (which is 192): \[ \frac{R^2}{32} = \frac{6R^2}{192} \] Thus, \[ I = 2\pi J_0 \left( \frac{6R^2}{192} - \frac{R^2}{192} \right) = 2\pi J_0 \cdot \frac{5R^2}{192} \] 9. **Final Expression for Total Current**: Therefore, the total current is: \[ I = \frac{10\pi J_0 R^2}{192} = \frac{5\pi J_0 R^2}{96} \] ### Conclusion: The total current in the radial region from \( r = 0 \) to \( r = \frac{R}{4} \) is: \[ I = \frac{5\pi J_0 R^2}{96} \]

To solve the problem, we need to calculate the total current flowing through a cylindrical wire with a given current density function. The current density \( J(r) \) is defined as: \[ J(r) = J_0 \left(1 - \frac{r}{R}\right) \] where \( J_0 \) is a constant, \( r \) is the radial distance from the center of the cylinder, and \( R \) is the radius of the cylinder. ...
