Two large insulating parallel plates carry charge of equal magnitude, one positive and the other negative, that is distributed uniformly over their inner surfaces. Rank the points 1 through 5 according to the magnitude of the electric field at the points, least to greatest. A. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
B. 2, then 1, 3, and 4 tied, then 5
C. 1, 4, and 5 tie, then 2 and 3 tie
D. 2 and 3 tie, then 1 and 4 tie, then 5
E. 2 and 3 tie, then 1, 4, and 5 tie

The correct answer is C 1, 4, and 5 tie, then 2 and 3 tie

Explanation:

Solution

The electric field due to sheets E₁ positive =б/2E₀

E₂ is negative = б/2E₀

Now,

At the point 1, 4, 5 the electric field due to the sheets are in the opposite direction

At the point 1, the net field = -E₁ + E₂ =0

At the point A, the net field = -E₁ - E₂ = 0

Now,

At nay point inside between them, the electric field is seen to be at the same direction.

At the 2, 3 points the field is seen at the right

Thus,

E net = E₁ + E₂

= б/2E₀ + σ/2E₀

=б/E₀
