English: Figure III represents the equipotential surfaces and lines of force due to an electrified point whose charge is 10 placed at A, and surrounded by a field of force, which, before the introduction of the electrified point, was uniform in direction and magnitude at every part. In this case, those lines of force which belong to A are contained within a surface of revolution which has an asymptotic cylinder, having its axis parallel to the undisturbed lines of force.
The equipotential surfaces have each of them an asymptotic plane. One of them, indicated by a dotted line, has a conical point and a lobe surrounding the point A. Those below this surface have one sheet with a depresion near the axis. Those above have a closed portion surrounding A and a separate sheet with a slight depression near the axis.
