Solutions to Problem Sets
The selected solutions to all 12 chapters problem sets are presented in this manual. The problem
sets depict examples of practical applications of the concepts described in the book, more
detailed analysis of some of the ideas, or in some cases present a new concept.
Note that selected problems have been given answers already in the book.

1. Using spherical coordinates, find the capacitance formed by two concentric spherical
conducting shells of radius a, and b. What is the capacitance of a metallic marble with a
diameter of 1cm in free space? Hint: let 𝑏 → ∞, thus, 𝐶 = 4𝜋𝜀𝜀0𝑎 = 0.55𝑝𝐹.
Solution: Suppose the inner sphere has a surface charge density of +𝜌𝑆. The outer surface
charge density is negative, and proportionally smaller (by (𝑎/𝑏)2) to keep the total charge
the same.
