III 129 DISTRIBUTION OF ELECTRICITY ON MOVING CONDUCTORS external normal, and a, b, c denote the angles which n, makes with the axes. From (1) and (2) we get dv²p dt = 4π▼²д, or V²µ= (V²µ)。e¯***¸. K Hence, if the density inside is not zero initially, it still continually approaches this value, and cannot be again pro- duced by electrostatic influences. Hence we have here V² = 0 (5). (6), Further, from (1) and (3), or by using equation (4) dh K- dt = pi ani x d (api ape K + 4π dt an; ane. афі = - Ini The equations (5) and (7) involve o alone. (7). Equation (5) must be satisfied throughout space; equation (7) at the surfaces of all conductors. is determined for all time by these equations -which no longer involve a reference to any particular system of coordinates-together with the well-known conditions of continuity and the initial value of 4. In the differential co- efficient dh/dt, h relates to a definite element of the surface; if the velocities of this element relative to any system of co- ordinates be a, B, y, then the above equations will refer to these coordinates, provided dh/dt be replaced by ah ah Əh +a +B θε да მყ Əh +7 az We get for the heat generated in time St SW = St√x(u² + v² + w²)dτ, = 1 - 2 de foameds, KC - Sp8hds, = - where ds denotes an element of surface, and the integrals are to be taken, the first throughout the interior, the others over M.
