Current density in a cylindrical wire of radius $R$ varies with radial distance as $J(r) = \beta(r + r_0)^2$. The current through the shaded section of the wire shown in the figure is:

$A$ steady current $I$ is set up in a wire whose cross-sectional area decreases in the direction of the flow of the current. Then,as we examine the narrowing region,

For a cylinder of radius $R$,the current density is given by $J = J_0 \frac{r}{R}$,where $J_0$ is a constant and $r$ is the distance from the axis. Calculate the total current.
