Homework Statement
Two long coaxial cylindrical metal tubes (inner radius a, outer radius b) stand vertically in a tank of (dielectric) oil (suceptibility X-e, mass density rho). the inner one is maintained at potential V, the outer one is grounded. to what height (h) does the oil rise between the tubes.
Homework Equations
F = (1/2) V squared dc/dx
x = (v squared C)/(2F)
C = epsilon-r epsilon-0 A/d
Q = CV
The Attempt at a Solution
I'm not quite sure where to start - I've put a few equations that I believe may be relevant.
