Let's consider the simplest electrostatic problem above a single point charge:
a system of two point charges. For definiteness, we put a charge \(q\) at coordinate
\(d \hat{z}\), and a charge \(-q\) at \(-d \hat{z}\). By superposition, we have that
\[
V(x,y,z) = \frac{1}{4\pi \varepsilon_0} \left[ \frac{q}{[x^2 + y^2 + (z-d)^2]^{1/2}}
\(d ~\hat{z}\), and a charge \(-q\) at \(-d ~\hat{z}\).

<li>\frac{q}{[x^2 + y^2 + (z+d)^2]^{1/2}} \right]</li>
</ul>

Now it's obvious that \(V = 0\) when \(z = 0\). Therefore, in the region \(z &gt; 0\), this problem
is completely equivalent to a second problem: a point charge \(q\) at \(d \hat{z}\),
{\it and a grounded conductor on the whole plane \(z = 0\)}. Yet another equivalent
problem in the region \(z &lt; 0\) is that of a charge \(-q\) at \(-d \hat{z}\) with a grounded

We can go one step further. In the two point charges problem (dipole), we could put
a conductor on {\it any} of the equipotential lines, and still have an explicit solution
a conductor on <i>any</i> of the equipotential lines, and still have an explicit solution
for the potential in terms of the potential from the original two point charges.

In the Image problem, we might want to know what the induced surface charge is.
Our next step in such image problems is to determine what the induced surface charge is.
