Problem

(a) Check that the results of Exs. 2.5 and 2.6, and Prob. 2.11, are consistent with Eq. 2.33. (b) Use Gauss's law to find the field inside and outside a long hollow cylindrical tube, which carries a uniform surface charge σ\sigma. Check that your result is consistent with Eq. 2.33. (c) Check that the result of Ex. 2.8 is consistent with boundary conditions 2.34 and 2.36.
