2.10 A large parallel plate capacitor is made up of two plane conducting sheets with
separation D, one of which has a small hemispherical boss of radius a on its inner
surface (D > a). The conductor with the boss is kept at zero potential, and the
other conductor is at a potenti al such that far from the boss the electric field between
the plates is Ep.
(a) Calculate the surface-charge densities at an arbitrary point on the plane and
on the boss, and sketch their behavior as a function of distance (or angle).
(b) Show that the total charge on the boss has the magnitude 3mé, Ega?.
(c) If, instead of the other conducting sheet at a different potential, a point charge
q is placed directly above the hemispherical boss at a distance d from its center,
show that the charge induced on the boss is
