A conducting sphere with radius R is centered at the origin. The sphere is grounded having an electric potential of zero. A point charge Q is brought toward the sphere along the z- axis and is placed at the point ะ-8. As the point charge approaches the sphere mobile charge is drawn from the ground into the sphere. This induced charge arranges itself over the surface of the sphere, not in a uniform way, but rather in such a way...
