Question

The two plates are a distance D apart. The surface area of the face of each plate is A, the total charge on each plate is tQ and -Q, and the resulting uniform charge density is +00 and -co respectively so that 0-Q/A Use the principle of superposition to identify the correct statement(s) about the electric field at points 1,2,3, and 4 2 0 The field at points 2 and 3 will be zero because the fields from negatively and positively charged plates cancel each other The field at points 1 and 4 will be zero because the fields from positively and negatively plates will cancel each other The charge on positively charged plate will not contribute to the field at point 1 because there's metal between them The charge on negatively charged plate will not contribute to the field at point 4 because there's metal between them The field at points 2 and 3 will be the same and the magnitude of the field is twice that of the field from a single plate The fields at points 1 and 4 will be the same magnitude as from a single plate but in opposite directions

Explanation / Answer

There are two more statements which are correct. They are

The field at point 2 and 3 will be the same and the magnitude of the field is twice that of the field from a single plate.

The field at point 1 and 4 will be the same magnitude as from single plate but
