Read rest of Chapter 3, sections 3.3.2 and 3.4

• A5 - 1 A long slot of rectangular cross section is machined into a conductor. The slot has depth L and gap g between its sidewalls. The bottom (x = 0) and two sidewalls ( y = + g/2 and y = -g/2) are all at potential V = 0. The cover at x = L has a smooth distribution of potential of the form V = Vo sin (2*pi*y /g). Find the two components of electric field (Ex, Ey) on the midplane (y = 0) and the surface charge distributions induced on the three conducting inside surfaces of the slot
• A5 - 2 Griffiths p 144, problem 3.19
• A5 - 3 Griffiths p 145, problem 3.26 (hint: look for solutions of Laplace's equation of the form (power of r)*(trig function of phi). The forms inside and outside the shell differ. )
• A5 - 4 Griffiths p 153, problem 3.31
• A5 - 5 Griffiths p 155, problem 3.40 (Hint: examine eq 3.91)
