Two long coaxial and conducting cylinders of radius $a$ and $b$ are separated by a material of conductivity $\sigma$ and a constant potential difference $V$ is maintained between them, by a battery. Then the current, per unit length of the cylinder flowing from one cylinder to the other is -
  • A$\frac{4 \pi \sigma}{\ln (b / a)} V$
  • B$\frac{4 \pi \sigma}{(b+a)} V$
  • C$\frac{2 \pi \sigma}{\ln (b / a)} V$
  • D$\frac{2 \pi \sigma}{(b+a)} V$
