Conductors and Dielectrics in an Electric Field

Problem 3.99

An infinitely long round dielectric cylinder is polarized úniformly and statically, the polarization P being perpendicular to the axis of the cylinder. Find the electric field strength E\mathbf{E} inside the dielectric

Reveal Answer
E=−P/2ε0\mathbf{E}=-\mathbf{P} / 2 \varepsilon_{0}
