Homework Statement
Hi,
I'm trying to find the potential of conducting grounded sphere with radius Rs which located in the center of charged ring with Rr (>Rs) with charge density λ, h meters up to the z axis (see the attached images)
Rs=4.3[cm]
Rr=6.6[cm]
h=13.1[cm]
λ=1.0[esu/cm]
The answer should be 0.81023024
2. The attempt at a solution
The sphere potential is easy one -
[itex]\Phi ring=\frac{2\pi Rr\lambda}{\sqrt{z^2+Rr^2}}[/itex]
But how do I get the potential of the sphere?
I've tried to use the image charged method, but I can't get to the right answer.
Can somebody help me?
Thanks,
Adam
