Consider a long straight cylindrical wire with radius R = 0.1 m is carrying the non-uniform current density which points along the axis of the wire and has a magnitude, J(r) = a/r, where r is the distance from the center axis of the wire. If a = 2 A/m, how much total current I passes through the wire (in A)?
