Chapter 5, Problem 5.2P
Consider the same vortex filament as in Problem 5.1. Consider also a straight line through the center of the loop, perpendicular to the plane of the loop. Let A be the distance along this line, measured from the plane of the loop. Obtain an expression for the velocity at distance A on the line, as induced by the vortex filament.
