A point charge +q is placed at a distance 
from an isolated conducting plane. The field at a point P on the other side of the plane is
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
A
When a positive point charge brought near an isolated conducting plane, then some negative charge develops on the surface of the plane towards the charge and an equal positive charge develops on opposite side to the plane. So, the field at point 
on other side is directed perpendicular to plane and away from it.
