Question

(Hopefully the diagram uploads this time)


You have an arrangement of conductors with a cross section resembling a Maltese

cross(see diagram). Three of the twelve sides are held at a constant potential V_0, and the other nine

are grounded. Find the potential at all points on the interior of this arrangement.


(Hints: This one isnot trivial. You may have to use several methods (perhaps method of images), and the best for which you can hope is to get close. Think about drawing in the field lines and equipotential curves.)

Note: The the lower three quarters are "grounded" as indicated by the space from the upper quarter
