How to solve this problem? Find the resistance R between
two small silver-painted dots separated by a distance L on
an infinite sheet of a carbon-impregnated paper. The uniform
thickness of the paper, d, and its conductivity, rho, are given.
Ignore the contact resistance of silver dots.
My first idea was to think about the rim-to-rim resistance
when the sheet is circular and when one dot is in the center
while another "dot" is painted along the circumference.
The
radius of the central dot is r1 while the radius of the outer
"dot" (the radius of the sheet) is r2. This problem is likely
to be less complicated and I know how I would start
solving it.
This problem has probably been solved somewhere.
