JEE Mains · Physics · STD 12 - 1. Electric charges and fields

An infinite plane sheet of charge having uniform surface charge density \(+\sigma_5 \mathrm{C} / \mathrm{m}^2\) is placed on \(\mathrm{x}-\mathrm{y}\) plane. Another infinitely long line charge having uniform linear charge density \(+\lambda_e \mathrm{C} / \mathrm{m}\) is placed at \(z=4 \mathrm{~m}\) plane and parallel to \(y\)-axis. If the magnitude values \(\left|\sigma_s\right|=2\left|\lambda_{\mathrm{e}}\right|\) then at point \((0,0,2)\), the ratio of magnitudes of electric field values due to sheet charge to that of line charge is \(\pi \sqrt{\mathrm{n}}: 1\). The value of \(n\) is _______.

  1. A \(16\)
  2. B \(20\)
  3. C \(23\)
  4. D \(30\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(16\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\frac{\mathrm{E}_S}{\mathrm{E}_{\ell}}=\frac{\sigma}{2 \epsilon_0} \times \frac{2 \pi \epsilon_0 \mathrm{r}}{\lambda}\) \(=\frac{\pi \times \sigma \mathrm{r}}{\lambda}\) \(=\frac{\pi \times 2 \lambda \times 2}{\lambda}=\frac{4 \pi}{1}\) \(\therefore \mathrm{n}=16\)
