Question
An infinite sheet of charge is located in the y-z plane at x = 0 and has uniform charge denisity σ1 = 0.41 μC/m2. Another infinite sheet of charge with uniform charge density σ2 = -0.11 μC/m2 is located at x = c = 32 cm.. An uncharged infinite conducting slab is placed halfway in between these sheets ( i.e., between x = 14 cm and x = 18 cm).

1)

What is Ex(P), the x-component of the electric field at point P, located at (x,y) = (7 cm, 0)?
