Looking for practice problems for "Method of Images" for charges

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on seeking practice problems related to the "Method of images of charges," particularly in preparation for the IIT JAM exam. A suggestion is made to use Google to search for "Method of images problems," highlighting that advanced problems often require a broader understanding of concepts and may not fit neatly into simple categories. It is noted that exploring the more general term "boundary value problems" could yield relevant practice problems, as these may involve the method of images but also encompass additional complexities.

One thing that you should be aware of - as problems become more advanced, they often require knowing more than one thing, and so do not neatly fall into simple categories. More likely you will find the more general term "boundary value problems" that may or may not lend themselves to the method of images.
 

Thread 'Self Learning Math/Physics'

Hey, I am Andreas from Germany. I am currently 35 years old and I want to relearn math and physics. This is not one of these regular questions when it comes to this matter. So... I am very realistic about it. I know that there are severe contraints when it comes to selfstudy compared to a regular school and/or university (structure, peers, teachers, learning groups, tests, access to papers and so on) . I will never get a job in this field and I will never be taken serious by "real"...

Thread 'What should I do if I found a paper with same result as mine?'

Yesterday, 9/5/2025, when I was surfing, I found an article The Schwarzschild solution contains three problems, which can be easily solved - Journal of King Saud University - Science ABUNDANCE ESTIMATION IN AN ARID ENVIRONMENT https://jksus.org/the-schwarzschild-solution-contains-three-problems-which-can-be-easily-solved/ that has the derivation of a line element as a corrected version of the Schwarzschild solution to Einstein’s field equation. This article's date received is 2022-11-15...
