To solve the problem, we will calculate the electric field in three different regions: (a) to the left of the plates, (b) to the right of the plates, and (c) between the plates. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Configuration**: - We have two parallel plates with surface charge densities of opposite signs. Let’s denote the surface charge density of the first plate as \( +\sigma \) and the second plate as \( -\sigma \), where \( \sigma = 19 \times 10^{-22} \, \text{C/m}^2 \). 2. **Electric Field Due to a Single Infinite Sheet**: ...
