The potential for an ideal electric dipole is given by
V(x,y,z)= pz/(4π ε0(x+y^2+z^2))
In rectangular, spherical, and cylindrical coordinates:
a) Find the electric field, E(x,y,z)= -∇V. (E is a vector, can't figure out how to denote that on my computer).
b) By direct Calculation find ∇•E and ∇XE (E is still vector)
this isn't really a physics question and more a vector calc question, but maybe someone is feeling up to flexing their spherical and cylindrical coordinate skills.
