Given:

Long cylindrical shell of uniform charge density.

To find:

Field intensity inside it?

Calculation:

Let us assume a distance "r" from geometric axis, such that r < R (R is the radius of the cylinder).

$q_{e}$ refers to enclosed charge within the Gaussian Surface.

Now, applying Gauss' Law:

$\displaystyle \oint \vec{E}. \vec{ds} = \frac{q_{e}}{ \epsilon_{0}}$

$\implies\displaystyle \oint E \times ds \times \cos( {0}^{ \circ} ) = \frac{q_{e} }{ \epsilon_{0}}$

$\implies\displaystyle \oint E \times ds = \frac{q_{e}}{ \epsilon_{0}}$

Now, as it is a cylindrical shell, the enclosed charge is zero.

$\implies\displaystyle \oint E \times ds = \frac{0}{ \epsilon_{0}}$

$\implies\displaystyle E = 0$

So, field inside the cylindrical shell is zero.
