Electric Field and Charged Particle in Electric Field
Question

Let E1(r), E2(r) and E3(r) be the respective electric fields at a distance r from a point charge Q, an infinitely long wire with constant linear charge density λ, and an infinite plane with uniform surface charge density s. If E1(r0) = E2(r0) = E3(r0) at a given distance r0, then

 r0=λ2πσ

E2 (r0/2) = 4E3(r0/2)

E1(r0/2) = 2E2 (r0/2)

Q = 4σπr02

Solution

(C)  Q4πε0r02=λ2πε0r0=   σ2ε0

 E1(r02)=   Q4πε0(r0/2)2

 2E2(r02)=2λ2πε0(r0/2)

(D)  E2(r02)=λ2πε0(r0/2)

 4E3(r02)=4σ2ε0
