Question

The figure shows two large, closely placed, parallel, nonconducting sheets with identical (positive) uniform surface charge densities, and a sphere with a uniform (positive) volume charge density. Four points marked as 1, 2, 3 and 4 are shown with in the space in between. If E1,E2,E3 and E4 are magnitude of net electric field at these points respectively then:

Solution

The correct option is C E3=E4>E2>E1
Electric field due to one plate =σεo
Due to other =σεo
since, they are equal in magnitude and in opposite direction they cancel each other.
Thus sole electric field is due to spherical charge,
Thus,
Eα1r2E3=E4>E2>E1Hence,optionCisthecorrectanswer.
