Figure shows a cylindrical conductor of inner radius a and outer radius b which carries a current i uniformly spread over its cross section. Show that the magnetic field B for points inside the body of the conductor (i.e., a<r<b) is given by B=μ0i2πb2-a2r2-a2r. This formula for the limiting case of a=0.
