Three large identical conducting plates ...

Three large identical conducting plates of area A are closely placed parallel to each other as shown (the area A is perpendicular to plane of diagram). The net charge on left, middle and right plates are `Q_(L), Q_(M)` and `Q_(R )` respectively. Three infinitely large parallel surface `S_(L), S_(M)` and `S_(R )` are drawn passing through middle of each plate such that surface are perpendicular to plane of diagram as shown. Then pick up the correct option(s).

A

Option1 The net charge on left side of surface `S_(L)` is equal to net charge on right side of surface `S_(R )`

B

Option2 The net charge on left side of surface `S_(L)` is equal to net charge on right side of surface `S_(M)`

C

Option3 The net charge on left side of surface `S_(L)` is equal to net charge on right side of surface `S_(L)`

D

Option4 The net charge on right side of surface `S_(L)` is equal to net charge on left side of surface `S_(R )`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Since electric field on plate at surface `S_(L)` is zero, net charge on left side of `S_(L)` is equal to net charhge on right side of `S_(L)` . Further net charge between any two dotted surfaces (out of `S_(L),S_(M)` and `S_(R)`) is zero from Gauss theorem.
`:.` Charge on left most surface `q_(1)` is equal to charge on rigth most surface `q_(6),` that is, `q_(1)=q_(6)` hence all statements are true.
