11.(5 e.c. points)
A round underwater transmission cable consists of a core of copper wires surrounded by nonconducting insulation. If \( x \) denotes the ratio of the radius of the core to the thickness of the insulation, it is known that the speed of the transmission signal is given by the equation
\[
v=x^{2}\ln \left(\frac{1}{x}\right)
\]
If the radius of the core is 1 cm , what insulation thickness \( h \) will allow the greatest transmission speed?
1 1 . ( 5 e . c . points ) A round underwater
