To solve the problem of drawing the pattern of electric lines when a point charge -Q is kept near an uncharged conducting plate, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the System**: We have a point charge -Q (negative charge) placed near an uncharged conducting plate. The conducting plate will respond to the electric field created by the point charge. 2. **Understand Charge Induction**: When the negative charge -Q is placed near the conducting plate, it will induce a separation of charges in the plate. The side of the plate closest to the charge will become positively charged due to the attraction of electrons towards the point charge, while the far side of the plate will become negatively charged as electrons move away from the point charge. ...
