Question
Let {\rm A} = \left(x_1,y_1 \right) and {\rm B} = \left( x_2,y_2 \right) be two points near and on the same side of acharged sheet with surface charge density + \sigma. The electric field E_vec due to such a charged sheet has magnitude E = \frac {\sigma}{2 \epsilon_0} everywhere, and the field points away from thesheet, as shown in the diagram.  View Figure
