Q. The electric field (E) between the plates of a charge cylindrical capacitor vary with distance (r) from the axis of the cylinder ?

Electrostatic Potential and Capacitance

Solution:

Electric field due to outer plate is zero so the electric field due to inner cylindrical charged conductor varies inversely as the distance from the axis.
