| − | $8.2.17.$ A metal ball of radius $r$ is located in a medium with a small conductivity $\lambda$. Determine the current flowing from the ball if its potential is $V$. If such a ball is connected by an insulated wire to a lightning rod, what will be the grounding resistance? | ||
| + | $8.2.17^*.$ A metal ball of radius $r$ is located in a medium with a small conductivity $\lambda$. Determine the current flowing from the ball if its potential is $V$. If such a ball is connected by an insulated wire to a lightning rod, what will be the grounding resistance? | ||
| ### Solution | |||
| Current will flow from the metal ball due to charge leakage into the conducting medium. The current density on the surface of the ball is: | |||
| $$j = \lambda E$$ | |||
| where $E$ is the electric field strength on the surface of the ball. | |||
| The potential of the ball is related to the electric field strength on its surface: | |||
| $$E = \frac{V}{r}$$ | |||
| Then: | |||
| $$j = \lambda \frac{V}{r}$$ | |||
| The current flowing from the surface of the ball is: | |||
| $$I = j \cdot S = \lambda \frac{V}{r} \cdot 4\pi r^2 = 4\pi\lambda rV$$ | |||
| If the ball is connected by an insulated wire to a lightning rod (which has the potential of the Earth), then the grounding resistance is: | |||
| $$R = \frac{V}{I} = \frac{V}{4\pi\lambda rV} = \frac{1}{4\pi\lambda r}$$ | |||
| #### Answer | |||
| $$I = 4\pi r\lambda V$$ | |||
| $$R = \frac{1}{4\pi r\lambda}$$ | |||
