Two thin infinite parallel sheets have uniform surface charge densities of `+sigma` and `-sigma`. Electric field is the space between the two sheets is :

A

0 volt/meter

B

`sigma//2epsi_(0)` volt/meter

C

`sigma//epsi_(0)` volt/meter

D

`2 sigma//epsi_(0)` volt/meter

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Electric field between the plates is
`=(sigma)/(2 epsi_(0))-((-sigma))/(2epsi_(0))`
`=(sigma)/(epsi_(0))` volt/meter.
