A charge + Q is fixed at a distance d in front of an infinite metal plate. Draw the lines of force indicating the directions clearly.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

There will be induced charge on two surfaces of conducting plate, so ELOF will start from + Q charge and terminate at conductor and then will again start from other surface of conductor.

Consider an electron in front of metallic surface at a distance d (treated as an infinite plane surface). Assume the force of attraction by the plate is given as 1/4 (q^(2))/(4pi in_(0)d^(2)) .
