SUMMARY
The magnetic field inside a cylindrical conductor with inner radius 'a' and outer radius 'b' carrying a uniform current 'I' is zero. This conclusion is derived using Ampere's Law, which states that the magnetic field is generated by currents enclosed by a loop. Since there is no current in the hollow part of the conductor, the magnetic field remains null within that region.
