Homework Statement
this is for a physics problem
so formula i need to solve V=1/4[tex]\pi[/tex][tex]\epsilon[/tex] (Qc/(rc-r [tex]\bullet[/tex] v)
the particle Q moves in a circle of radius a at constant speed w circle is in xy plane at t=0 charge is at (a,0)on x axis. find potentail of charge in z axis.
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
so i never really know how to find the r the vector position to field point R
I always put like r=(z2+r2) or something but don't know how they find it. For here they did
r= z z^- a(coswt x^ +sinwt y^) than they got
r2=z2 +a2
than they got to something similar to what i always guess r=(z+a)1/2
so how would i figure this out? What is this exactly called so i can maybe find some youtube videos
thanks
