A solid conducting sphere of radius a is held at a constant potential V0 which is not necessarily zero. It is surrounded by a thin concentric spherical shell of radius b, as shown in Figure 1 , on which a surface charge density exists, given by σ(θ) = k cosθ where k is a constant and θ is the polar angle in spherical coordinates. The regions in-between the conductor and the shell, and outside the shell, are vacuum. Figure 1 (a) State the boundary conditions on the potential and its radial derivative at r = b. (b) You are given the general solution to Laplace’s equation with azimuthal symmetry, in the two regions, as follows: V(r,θ) = (P l Alr l + Bl r l+1 Pl(cos θ), for r ≥ b P l Clr l + Dl r l+1 Pl(cos θ), for a ≤ r ≤ b Determine the coefficients Al , Bl , Cl and Dl for all l. (c) Hence, show that the induced surface charge density on the inner conductor is given by σi(θ) = -kcosθ + V0 ϵ0/a The first two Legendre polynomials are given for this question: P0(x) = 1, P1(x) = x.
