Separation of variables and laplaces equation in electrostatics
The problem has to do with the potential inside a square. Separation of variables is to be used to find the general solution to the problem and then the boundary conditions need to be applied. The constant needs to be found then as well. The problem is attached. I have also attached the picture of the problem.
