II 103 INDUCTION IN ROTATING SPHERES are the currents sought in S. Hence the problem is reduced to this simpler one :— To determine such a function, that inside S V2, = 0, and at its surface op/on = N, a given function. bounded by a straight edge. 1. As an example, suppose a plate bounded by the straight Plate line = b to move parallel to a given straight line. Suppose the external potential expanded, and let a term of it be Ae-5" cos rn cos s§. Then we found for the current in the infinite plate α ₁ =A. .sin rn. cos s§. n K Thus the current perpendicular to the boundary is - θη = 7,2 a A n K cos rn. cos sb. Hence we get for 4, the conditions and for b = 242 = 2² 42+ ə² 2 ô× 10- p² a A N K • = 0 " cos rn. cos sb. We have ૦૬ Φ $2 = rα-b) cos rn. cos sb. A- n K To corresponds the current-function = - τα Ara.e-b) sin rŋ. cos sb, Α N K and thus the total current-function becomes ¥₁ +₂ = A². α η κ .erb sin rn(e. cos ser. cos sb). By summing for all the terms we get the complete solu- tion. The solution for a band bounded on both sides is similar.
