Electric field of a dipole
Griffiths problem 4.11 page 170
A short cylinder of radius a and lenght L carries a frozen in uniform polarization P parallel to its axis. Find the bound charge and sketch theelectric field for L>> a L<<a L approximately equal to a well i have no problem finding the bound charge but the electricfield.. would in eed to find an explicit expression or just sketch it qualitatively?? Suppoose L << a then it look a dipole doesnt it and the field falls off like 1/r^3 suppose L >> a then it looks like an infinite rod and the electric field falls off like 1/r but For L approx equal to a im stumped... please help! than kyou for all teh advice! |
