Important Questions on Electric Charges and Fields


In the figure an electron is shot directly away from a uniformly charged plastic sheet, at speed . The sheet is nonconducting, flat, and very large.
gives the electron's vertical velocity component versus time until the return to the launch point. What is the sheet's surface charge density?



The figure shows three plastic sheets that are large, parallel, and uniformly charged.
The figure gives the component of the net electric field along an axis through the sheets. The scale of the vertical axis is set by . What is the ratio of the charge density on the sheet to that on the sheet ?
