Abstract: The parameter "a" associated with the Kerr metric has been used to determine the rotationally induced quadrapole electric field outside a rotating massive object with external dipole magnetic field. A comparison of the result with that of the Newtonian case implies that the parameter "a" represents the angular momentum per unit mass of a rotating hollow object.
