If each of V1, V2.....VN satisfies Laplacian equation ∇2V=0, then the volt V=C1V1+C2V2+....+CNVN also satisfies Laplacian equation, where C1,C2....CN are some fixed constants. [Hint: prove it]

Step 1
The Laplacian of a scalar function \( V \) in three-dimensional Cartesian coordinates is given by: \[ \nabla^2 V = \frac{\partial^2 V}{\partial x^2} + \frac{\partial^2 V}{\partial y^2} + \frac{\partial^2 V}{\partial z^2} \] Show more…
