Question

Two very large parallel sheets are 5.00 apart. Sheet carries a uniform surface charge density of -8.60 , and sheet , which is to the right of , carries a uniform charge of 12.6 . Assume the sheets are large enough to be treated as infinite.
Part A
Find the magnitude of the net electric field these sheets produce at a point 4.00 to the right of sheet .


Correct
Part C
Find the magnitude of the net electric field these sheets produce at a point 4.00 to the left of sheet .


Part E
Find the magnitude of the net electric field these sheets produce at a point 4.00 to the right of sheet .


Explanation / Answer

At point to the left of the sheets, the intensities E1 and E2 due to both the sheets are in opposite directions.As they are equal in magnitude,the resultant intensity E would be zero,that is, E= E1- E2 = (?1/2?0)
