Varies as (1/r2) where r is the distance from the axis

Q. Consider a charged cylindrical capacitor. Now, find the magnitude of the electric field in the annular region of this capacitor:

Is the same through out

Is higher near the outer cylinder than near the inner cylinder

Varies as $\frac{1}{r ^{2}}$ where $r$ is the distance from the axis

Varies as $\frac{1}{r ^{3}}$ where $r$ is the distance from the axis

Varies as $\frac{1}{r ^{2}}$ where $r$ is the distance from the axis

Q. Consider a charged cylindrical capacitor. Now, find the magnitude of the electric field in the annular region of this capacitor:

Is the same through out

Is higher near the outer cylinder than near the inner cylinder

Varies as r21​ where r is the distance from the axis

Varies as r31​ where r is the distance from the axis

Varies as r21​ where r is the distance from the axis

Varies as $\frac{1}{r ^{2}}$ where $r$ is the distance from the axis

Varies as $\frac{1}{r ^{3}}$ where $r$ is the distance from the axis

Varies as $\frac{1}{r ^{2}}$ where $r$ is the distance from the axis
