Exercise: A rectangular conducting plate lies in the xy plane, occupying the region 0<x<5.0 m, 0<y<
5.0 m. An identical conducting plate is positioned parallel to the first one at z=10.0 m. The region
between the plates is filled with a material having a conductivity o(x)=e*10 S/m. It is known that an
electric field intensity E=-50a. V/mexists within the material. Find: (a) the potential difference V
between the two plates; (b) the total current flowing between the plates; (c) the resistance of the material.
