In this video, we solve Problem 3.11 from Griffiths’ Introduction to Electrodynamics. The problem involves two semi-infinite grounded conducting planes meeting at right angles, with a point charge qqq placed in the region between them. Using the method of images, we:
✅ Set up the image charge configuration
✅ Calculate the potential in the region
✅ Determine the force on qqq
✅ Compute the work required to bring qqq from infinity
✅ Discuss whether the method works for angles other than 90∘90^\circ90∘, and identify which angles allow this approach
This problem is a classic application of the method of images in electrostatics and is essential for understanding boundary conditions and symmetry in potential problems.
📌 Topics Covered:
Image charge method for grounded conductors
Potential calculation in complex geometries
Force and work in electrostatics
Special cases for different angles
Perfect for MSc Physics, Electrodynamics courses, and competitive exam preparation.
