Hello all,
I have recently been taught the method of imagging with opposite point charges. The stereotypical example of a point charge above an infinit conducting plate comes fine but i can't grasp the sphere example. It is shown http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Method_of_image_charges" [Broken] , I can't see how they derive the value of the mirror charge, thank you very much any help is appreciated.
