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+

Show that the electric field of a (perfect) dipole (Eq. 3.103) can be written in the coordinate-free form

Edip(r)=1401401r3[3p^rr-p]

RFind the average potential over a spherical surface of radius Rdue to

a point charge qlocated inside (same as above, in other words, only with z<R).(In this case, of course, Laplace's equation does not hold within the sphere.) Show that, in general,

role="math" localid="1657706668993" Vave=Vcenter+Qenc40R

where Vcenteris the potential at the center due to all the external charges, andQenc is the total enclosed charge.

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?

Buckminsterfullerine is a molecule of 60 carbon atoms arranged

like the stitching on a soccer-ball. It may be approximated as a conducting spherical shell of radius R=3.5A. A nearby electron would be attracted, according to Prob. 3.9, so it is not surprising that the ion C60-exists. (Imagine that the electron on average-smears itself out uniformly over the surface.) But how about a second electron? At large distances it would be repelled by the ion, obviously, but at a certain distance r (from the center), the net force is zero, and closer than this it would be attracted. So an electron with enough energy to get in that close should bind.

(a) Find r, in A. [You'll have to do it numerically.]

(b) How much energy (in electron volts) would it take to push an electron in (from

infinity) to the point r? [Incidentally, the C60-ion has been observed.]

You can use the superposition principle to combine solutions obtained by separation of variables. For example, in Prob. 3.16 you found the potential inside a cubical box, if five faces are grounded and the sixth is at a constant potential V0; by a six-fold superposition of the result, you could obtain the potential inside a cube with the faces maintained at specified constant voltages . V1,V2,......V6In this way, using Ex. 3.4 and Prob. 3.15, find the potential inside a rectangular pipe with two facing sides (x=b)at potential V0, a third (y=a)at V1. and the last at(y=a) grounded.
