Solution 15.
See text and/or instructor's solution manual.
Solution. The
equipotentials
can
be written as
.
Then we get
, and then
.
Taking anti-logs this we have
, which are
concentric circles centered at the origin with
radii
.
The
streamlines
can
be written as
. Using
the polar form
, we
see that
this is the equation for rays emanating from the origin making an
angle of
radians
for
.
We can let Mathematica do our work.
