Three infinitely long charged sheets are placed as shown in the figure. The electric force acting on a charge \(-q\) placed at the point \(P\) is \(\left(\sigma=\right.\) surface charge density, \(\varepsilon_0=\) permittivity of the free space)

  1. A \(+\frac{2 \sigma}{\varepsilon_0} \hat{\mathbf{k}}\)
  2. B \(-\frac{2 \sigma}{\varepsilon_0} \hat{\mathbf{k}}\)
  3. C \(+\frac{4 \sigma}{\varepsilon_0} \hat{\mathbf{k}}\)
  4. D \(-\frac{4 \sigma}{\varepsilon_0} \hat{\mathbf{k}}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(-\frac{2 \sigma}{\varepsilon_0} \hat{\mathbf{k}}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

According to the question, Given, surface charge density \(=\sigma\) permittivity of the free space \(=\varepsilon_0\) Now, the electric force acting on a charge \(-q\) at a place the point \(P\),…
