Q. Two parallel large non-conducting sheets with identical (positive) uniform surface charge densities and a sphere $A$ with a uniform (positive) volume charge density are arranged as shown in figure. Rank the points $ 1 $ , $ 2 $ , $ 3 $ and $ 4 $ according to the magnitudes of the net electric field in increasing orderPhysics Question Image

AMUAMU 2013Electric Charges and Fields

Solution:

The net electric field due to both sheets will be equal and opposite In direction so net electric field will be zero.
$\therefore $ Points which are near sphere will have max value of electric field.
Point $3$ and $4$ are at equal distance so electric field at $3$ and $4$ will be same.
Increasing order of electric field is $1, 2, 3 = 4$.
