    Study Notes

    Electric Field Inside a Sphere

    • The electric field inside a sphere with radius R and a point at distance r (r < R) has a formula.

    Relative Permittivity (εr)

    • εr represents how much a medium reduces the electric field.

    Electric Field Due to a Flat Sheet

    • The formula for the electric field due to an infinite non-conducting flat sheet having charge density σ is given by E = σ / (2ε₀).

    Electric Field Near a Charged Sheet

    • The electric field near a charged sheet depends on the charge density σ and the permittivity of free space ε₀, not on the distance from the sheet.

    Electric Potential Due to an Infinite Flat Conductor

    • The electric potential at any point due to an infinite flat conductor carrying charge is constant everywhere.
