70 II INDUCTION IN ROTATING SPHERES we get iw – *'- (~) "Ap({})" — 1 (F,(p) cos in – F₂(p) sin is} Pri- = Αρ R n+1 = The equation + is satisfied if ƒ₁ and ƒ½ satisfy the equations (p)=1+F(p). K Treatment of the equa- tions for the f's. ίω ƒ₂(p) = _ ¹@F₁(p), KC by which f₁ and f, are completely determined. If we regard f₁ and ƒ, as known, the result of the investi- gation may be expressed in the following form:- - Self-induction leaves the form of the lines of flow un- altered (for each separate term of the development). Its effect is :- Firstly, to turn the system in the direction of rotation through an angle S/i, where the angle & is different for different layers and is given by the equation tan d =ƒ½ƒr Secondly, to change the intensity of the current differently in different layers. The ratio of the intensity actually occurring to that found without taking account of self-induc- tion is fi²+f2:1. We shall have to occupy ourselves for some time with the determination of the functions f₁ and f We introduce the following contractions. Απίω = με, Let 2 K μr = 8, μR = S, ƒ1(p) = $1(µp) = $10, ƒ2(P) = $2(µp) = $20. In the equations which give f, and f₂ we put for F, and F₂ their values, transform the equations so as to involve o and σ, and thus obtain
