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/(4piepsilon_0d^2)`
Calculate work in taking the charge to an infinte distance from the plate. taking d=0.1nm, find the work done in electron volts. [such a force law is not valid for d< 0.1nm].
