Problem 3.361

A long solid aluminum cylinder of radius a=5.0 cma=5.0 \mathrm{~cm} rotates about its axis in a uniform magnetic field with induction B=10 m TB=10 \mathrm{~m} \mathrm{~T}. The angular velocity of rotation equals ω=45rad/s\omega=45 \mathrm{rad} / \mathrm{s} with ω\omega \uparrow \uparrow. Neglecting the magnetic field of appearing charges, find their space and surface densities.
