Three very large sheets are separated by equal distances of d = 16.9 cm as seen...

Three very large sheets are separated by equal distances of d = 16.9 cm as seen in the figure below. The first and third sheets are very thin and nonconducting and have surface charge densities of ?1 = +5.02 uC/ m2 and ?2 = -5.02 uC/ m2 respectively. The middle sheet is conducting but has no net charge.

Three very large sheets are separated by equal dis

What is the electric field between the left and middle sheets (Use to the right as the positive direction)?

Answer #1

we are given

d = 16.9 cm

?1 = +5.02 uC/ m2

and ?2 = -5.02 uC/ m2

What is the electric field between the left and middle sheets =?

since field lines pass only thru the ends of a Gaussian "pillbox"

     drawn thru the non-conducting sheet - note that the field does not

     depend on the distance from the sheet because no lines of flux pass

     thru the sides of the pillbox
