Chapter 23, Problem 37P

SSM WWW A square metal plate of edge length 8.0 cm and negligible thickness his a total charge of 6.0 × 10⁻⁶ C. (a) Estimate the magnitude E of the electric field just off the center of the plate (at, say. a distance of 0.50 mm from the center) by assuming that the charge is spread uniformly over the two faces of the plate. (b) Estimate E at a distance of 30 m (large relative to the plate size) by assuming that the plate is a charged particle.
