Physics 435 Spring 2009 Homework #
Griffiths problem 2.
Griffiths problem 2.6 This is most easily done in cylindrical coordinates.
Griffiths problem 2.12 (don’t bother comparing)
Griffiths problem 2.16 This is most easily done in cylindrical coordinates.
Griffiths problem 2.18 This is fairly easy if you start by writing the field inside of a uniform sphere in terms of a vector from the “observation” point to the sphere center and use superposition.
