Step 1
First, let's define the coordinate system. We can choose the x-axis to be perpendicular to the sheets of charge, with the positive direction pointing from sheet A towards sheet C. The y and z axes can be chosen arbitrarily. Show more…

Two infinite non-conducting sheets of charge are parallel to each other, with sheet A in the x = -3.0 m plane and sheet B in the x = +3.0 m plane. Find the electric field in the region x < -3.0 m, in the region x > +3.0 m, and between the sheets for the following situations: (a) When each sheet has a uniform surface charge density equal to +6.0 μC/m^2. (b) When sheet A has a uniform surface charge density equal to +6.0 μC/m^2 and sheet B has a uniform surface charge density equal to -6.0 μC/m^2. (c) Sketch the electric field-line pattern for each case.

Q1: Two thin, infinite, charged non-conducting parallel sheets are separated by a distance d. The charge density on the two sheets is +σ. The electric field in the region between the two sheets has a magnitude of? Q2: Consider a uniform electric field of magnitude 5000 N/C in the positive x-direction. What is the flux of this field through a square of side 20.0 cm if the normal to its plane makes a 45° angle with the x-axis?
