In Prob. 2.25, you found the potential on the axis of a uniformly charged disk:

V(r,0)=20(r2+R2r)

(a) Use this, together with the fact that Pi(1)=1to evaluate the first three terms

in the expansion (Eq. 3.72) for the potential of the disk at points off the axis, assuming r>R.

(b) Find the potential for r<Rby the same method, using Eq. 3.66. [Note: You

must break the interior region up into two hemispheres, above and below the

disk. Do not assume the coefficients A1are the same in both hemispheres.]

(a) The first three terms in the expansion for the potential r>Ris 蟽搁240r1R28r23cos21+.

(b) The first three terms in the expansion for the potential r<Ris20R+rcos+r28R3cos21+

Step by step solution

01

Define functions

Write the expression for the potential outside the disk in spherical polar co-ordinates.

V(r,)=l=0Birt1Pi(cos){for r<R] 鈥︹ (1)

Given that, the potential on the axis is,

V(r,0)=20(r2+R2r) 鈥︹ (2)

02

Determine part (a)

a)

From the equation (1)

V(r,)=i=0n=Birl=1P1(cos)

=i=0Birl=1Pi(1)

V(r,)=i=0Biri=1

Then,j=0irBjrj1=20r7+Rr

As, r>Rfor this region

r2+R2=r1+R2r22

=r1+12R2r218R4r4+

This is done by (x+1)12.

r2+R2=1+12x123x2+

l=0Bjrl1=201+12R2r218R4r4+1

=20R22r18R4r3+鈥︹. (3)

Substitute I=0in equation (3), then

B0=蟽搁240

B1=0

B2=蟽搁416s0

Now,

V(r,0)=蟽搁240r蟽搁4160r3P2(cos0)+

=蟽搁240r1rR24r3P2(cos)+

=蟽搁240r1R28r23cos21+

Hence, the first three terms in the expansion for the potentialr>R is 蟽搁240r1R28r23cos21+

DeriveP3(x)from the Rodrigues formula, and check that P3(cos)satisfies the angular equation (3.60) for I=3. Check that P3and P1are orthogonal by explicit integration.

For the infinite slot (Ex. 3.3), determine the charge density (y)on

the strip at x=0, assuming it is a conductor at constant potential V0.

Two semi-infinite grounded conducting planes meet at right angles. In the region between them, there is a point chargeq, situated as shown in Fig. 3.15. Set up the image configuration, and calculate the potential in this region. What charges do you need, and where should they be located? What is the force onq? How much Work did it take to bringqin from infinity? Suppose the planes met at some angle other than; would you still be able to solve the problem by the method of images? If not, for what particular anglesdoesthe method work?

A rectangular pipe, running parallel to the z-axis (from -to +), has three grounded metal sides, at y=0,y=aand x=0The fourth side, at x=b, is maintained at a specified potential V0(y).

(a) Develop a general formula for the potential inside the pipe.

(b) Find the potential explicitly, for the case V0(y)=V0(a constant).

In Ex. 3.2 we assumed that the conducting sphere was grounded ( V=0). But with the addition of a second image charge, the same basic modelwill handle the case of a sphere at any potentialV0 (relative, of course, to infinity). What charge should you use, and where should you put it? Find the force of attraction between a point charge q and a neutral conducting sphere.
