A uniform dielectric ball is placed in a unifrom electric fileld of strength `E_(0)`. Under these conditions teh dielectric becomes polarized uniformly. Find the electric field strength `E` inside teh ball and the polarization `P` of the dielectric whose permittively equals `epsilon`. Make use of the reslult obtained in Problem 3.96 |

Answer» By superposition the field `vec(E)` inside the ball is given by `vec(E) = vec(E_(0)) - (vec(P))/(3epsilon_(0))` On the other hand, if the space is not too small, the macrospic equation `vec(P) = (epsilon - 1) epsilon_(0) vec(E)` 0r, `vec(E) = (3 vec(E_(0)))/(epsilon + 2)` Also, `vec(P) = 3epsilon_(0) (epsilon - 1)/(epsilon + 2) vec(E_(0))` |
