    Answer:

    a) The electric potential between the cylinders, V(L) = \frac{20b - 100a + 80L}{b-a}

    b) The electric field between the cylinders, E = \frac{80}{b-a}

    Explanation:

    Voltage at the inner conductor, V₁ = 20 volts

    Voltage at the outer conductor, V₂ = 100 volts

    Change in potential, \triangle V = V_{2} - V_{1}

    \triangle V = 100 - 20\\\triangle V = 80 volts

    The change in potential is given by the formula:

    \triangle V = E(b-a)\\80 = E(b-a)

    The electric field, E = \frac{80}{b-a}

    To get the electric potential at a certain point, L from the center:

    The distance from the outer conductor to the center = b – L

    The electric potential at L will be given by the equation:

    V(L) = V_{b} - V_{center} \\V(L) = 100 - E(b-L)\\E = \frac{80}{b-a} \\V(L) = 100 - \frac{80}{b-a}(b-L)

    V(L) = \frac{100(b-a) - 80(b-L)}{b-a} \\V(L) = \frac{100b - 100a -80b + 80L}{b-a} \\V(L) = \frac{20b - 100a + 80L}{b-a}
