Question: Two long coaxial cylindrical metal tubes (inner radius a, outer radius b) stand vertically in a tank of dielectric oil (susceptibility Xe, mass density p).

Two long coaxial cylindrical metal tubes (inner radius a, outer radius b) stand vertically in a tank of dielectric oil (susceptibility Xe, mass density p). The inner one is maintained at potential V, and the outer one is grounded (Fig. 4.32). To what height (h) does the oil rise in the space between the tubes?

Oil b T h

Oil b T h
