Physics Asked by Von on June 6, 2021
So I am reading solution of following exercise:
A conducting sphere with radius $R$ moves with constant velocity $v=ve_x$ inside a constant magnetic field $B=Be_y$. Find the induced charge distribution on the sphere to 1st order in $v/c$ in the laboratory inertial reference frame.
Which is on page:
https://www.physicsforums.com/threads/moving-sphere-in-magnetic-field.825426/
So the personal is this topic solves laplace equation with condition that potenial w infinity must go to $-rgamma frac{v}{c}costheta$ I don’t get why.
Because it implements the correct boundary conditions for the electric field in the primed reference system $E'(r) to E_0vec{e}_z$. Check that this is true by taking the gradient.
Conversely you may ask what potential fulfills $nabla Phi(r,theta) = E_0vec{e}_z$ which will lead to the expression.
Admittedly, it is not obvious at first glance and the author of the question probably put some thought into it.
