I was impressed that Dr. Laplace took
care of the charge conservation, and of the
Cij=Cji automatically, I did not have to ask
for it, it was the consequence of solving the
equation.
4) But how can one justify Cij=Cji? John
justified it be referring to Dr. Maxwell. Can
this be done on the basis of what is explained
in a typical introductory physics textbook? The
question is "why does the coefficient of influence
of object i on object j is the same as that of
object j on object i? That may be obvious for
two identical spherical conductors but not for
two conductors whose sizes and shapes are very
different.
