Two large parallel sheets charged unifor...

Two large parallel sheets charged uniformly with surfasce charge density `sigma` and `-sigma` are located as shown in the figure. Which one of the following graphs shows the variation of electric field along a line perpendicular to the sheets as one moves from `A` to `B` ?
`

A

B

C

D

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

In the given system of sheets electric field only exist between the plates which is given as
`E=(sigma)/(epsi_(0))=`constant.
Due to opposite polarity of charges on sheets in outside region at all points electric field will get cancelled out.
