Question

An infinite sheet lie on the xz plane and z axis points outward from the page (not shown). A solid non-conducting sphere of radius R is placed at h+r distance away from the infinite sheet. Use the following values of these quantities charge density of sphere ρ=37pC/m3, charge density of the infinite sheet σ=18pC/m2, radius of the solid sphere R=4.0m, radius of the Gaussian sphere r=8.0m value of h=2m. (here 1pCmeans pico coulomb charge that is, 10−12C.

(i) Find the net electric field at point P1.

(ii)Find the x component of the electric field.

(iii)Find the y component of the electric field.
