is much smaller than the dimensions of the sheet so that, for all practical purposes the
sheet can be assumed to be of innite extent surrounded by free space. a) What should be the sheet charge density for the charge to levitate motionless at the position where it was placed at

For your calculations, use as your reference coordinate system one with its plane coincide with the plane of the charged sheet. 5. Consider a three-slab geometry of three identical slabs of equal widths
z=0
taken to
W in x-direction, and innite extent in y and z directions. In slab 1 extending over 2W < x < W , charge density is 1o , 3 where o measured in C/m units is some positive number. In slab 2 extending over W < x < 0 the charge density is 2o . Finally, in slab 3 extending over 0 < x < W the charge density is 4o . Charge density is zero everywhere else. Determine and sketch Ex (x) over the region 3W < x < 3W .
Label both axes of your plot carefully, marking the eld value at each break point.
Hint:
use superposition of shifted and scaled versions of the static eld conguration of a single
charged slab. 6. Curl and divergence exercises: a) On a 25-point graph consisting of sketch the vector eld b) Repeat (a) for
