A point charge `q` is located at a distance `l` from an infinite conduting plane. Determine the surface density of charges induced on the plane as a function of separaction `r` from the base of the perpendicular drawn to the plane from the chagre.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`sigma=-(ql)/(2pi(l^(2)+r^(2))^(3//2)), q_("nd")=-q`
