II - 75 INDUCTION IN ROTATING SPHERES B = 2n+1 In+1(28) 4n Pn-1 (λS) In+1(8) − Pn+1(~28)In−1(S)' 2n+1 D = 4n Pn+1(8) Pn-1(S)In+1(8) − Pn+1(λ28)In−1(S) - We get the complete solution by substituting these values in 4, and 2. It may be more simply exhibited thus: Since and λ are conjugate, p (λσ) and p (λσ) also are conjugate; in the same way A and B are conjugate, as is easily seen, and hence Ap₂ (λ¸σ)+Вp₂(λ20) is equal to twice the real part of either expression. In the same way Ap₁(λσ) - Bp(20), which expression occurs in 4,, is twice the imaginary part of the first term. Remembering this, and also the values of A and C, we easily recognise the truth of the equation 2n+1 2n Pn(~¤)In+1(8) − In(10)Pn+1(~8) Pn−1(^1S)In+1(s) − In-1(MS)Pn+1(8) - = $₁+$₂√ − 1 = ƒ₁+f₂√ −1. - - This equation is especially simple when s = 0, that is in the case of a solid sphere. Then q+1 (s) is infinite, and thus our equation becomes 2n+1 Pn(10) 2n Pn-1(S) = $1 + $₂√ - 1. The quantities, a knowledge of which is of special interest to us, are the angle σ = tan-f2f1, and the ratio of increase of current, fi+f. These have a very simple analytical mean- ing they are the amplitude and modulus of the complex quantity on the left-hand side. 2. The calculation may be carried still further by means of the following remarks:- Solution of the equa tions for the f's by means of the p's and q's. Further of the p's The indefinite integrals defining p and q may be evaluated properties for integral values of n, and thus p and q may be expressed and q's.
