Current density in a cylindrical wire of radius $R$ is given as $J = \begin{cases} J_0 \left( \frac{x}{R} - 1 \right) & 0 \leqslant x < \frac{R}{2} \\ J_0 \frac{x}{R} & \frac{R}{2} \leqslant x \leqslant R \end{cases}$. The current flowing in the wire is:

  • A
    $\frac{7}{24} \pi J_0 R^2$
  • B
    $\frac{1}{6} \pi J_0 R^2$
  • C
    $\frac{7}{14} \pi J_0 R^2$
  • D
    $\frac{5}{12} \pi J_0 R^2$
