Q3. Figure (a) given below shows three plastic sheets that are large, parallel, and uniformly charged. Figure (b) gives the component of the net electric field along an x axis through the sheets. The scale of the vertical axis is set by $E_s = 6.0 imes 10^5$ N/C. What is the ratio of the charge density on sheet 3 to that on sheet 2?

Step 1
We know that the electric field between two parallel sheets with the same charge density is zero. Therefore, the electric field between sheets 1 and 2 must be due to the charge density on sheet 3. Show more…

Figure $23-46 a$ shows three plastic sheets that are large, parallel, and uniformly charged. Figure $23-46 b$ gives the component of the net electric field along an $x$ axis through the sheets. The scale of the vertical axis is set by $E_{s}=6.0 \times 10^{5} \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{C} .$ What is the ratio of the charge density on sheet 3 to that on sheet $2 ?$
Figure $23-47 a$ shows three plastic sheets that are large, parallel, and uniformly charged. Figure $23-47 b$ gives the component of the net electric field along an $x$ axis through the sheets. The scale of the vertical axis is set by $E_{s}=3.0 \times 10^{5} \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{C}$. What is the ratio of the charge density on sheet 3 to that on sheet $2 ?$
