Equation 23-11 (E = s/´0) gives the electric field at points near a charged conducting surface. Apply this equation to a conducting sphere of radius r and charge q, and show that the electric field outside the sphere is the same as the field of a charged particle located at the center of the sphere.
A thin conducting plane with surface charge density o is exposed to an external electric Eext. The difference in the electric field between one surface of the plane to the other surface is
