The expression for electric field intensity at a points outside uniformly charged thin plane sheet is (where, d is the distance of point from plane sheet)

A

independent of d

B

directly proportional to `sqrt(d)`

C

directly proportional to d

D

directly proportional to `(1)/(sqrt(d))`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
We know that,
the electric field intensity outside the sheet is given by
`E_(outside)=(sigma)/(2epsilon_(0))`
Therefore, the electric field intensity is independent of d.
