`X` and `Y` are large, parallel conducting plates close to each other. Each face has an area `A`. `X` is given a charge `Q`. `Y` is without any charge. Points `A,B` and `C` are as shown in the figure.

A

The field at `B` is `(Q)/(2epsilon_(0)A)`

B

The field at `B` is `(Q)/(epsilon_(0)A)`

C

The field at `A,B` and `C` are of the same magnitude.

D

The field at `A` and `C` are of the same magnitude but in opposite directions.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A,C,D

`E=(sigma )/(2epsilon_(0))=(q)/(2Aepsilon_(0))` at points `A,B,&C`
