Not what you're looking for?

Ask Custom Question

Write out Maxwell's Equations component-wise in cylindrical coordinates in their most general form. Remember that each field component can be a function of all three spatial dimensions as well as time. You should end up with eight equations. Assume that all source terms are present, or that there exists both a charge density and a current density throughout the region of interest. This should be the for you would need to solve a fully general program for a wave form on a coaxial cable.
