1.16 [1pt] Consider an infinite non-conducting plane having a charge density of 1 C/m^2. Sketch electric field lines and indicate the value of electric field 1 m away from the plane
1.16 ANSWER
1.17 [1pt] Let’s add a point charge of-1C, at a distance 1 m from the plane in problem 1.18. What would be the force onto the charge?
1.17 ANSWER
1.18 [2pt] How much work will it take to remove the point charge in 1.17 from where it was infinitely far away from the plain. Explain your answer to the best of your knowledge.
1.18 ANSWER
Consider a conducting sheet with dimensions 1m by 1m by 1mm. A charge of 1 C was deposited into it, assume it is spread uniformly along the surface.
1.19 [1pt] What is electric field inside the sheet?
1.19 ANSWER
1.19 There will be no electric field inside the sheet, as the sheet is conducting. all the charges will distribute themselves on the outer surface of the sheet. So there will be no charge inside the conductor (cavity) and there will be no field.
