(i) Use Gauss's law to find the electric field due to a uniformly charged infinite plane sheet. What is the direction of field for positive and negative charge densities?
(ii) Find the ratio of the potential differences that must be applied across the parallel and series combination of two capacitors and with their capacitances in the ratio so that the energy stored in the two cases becomes the same.
OR
(i) If two similar large plates, each of area having surface charge densities and are separated by a distance in air, find the expressions for
(a) field at points between the two plates and on outer side of the plates.
Specify the direction of the field in each case.
(b) the potential difference between the plates.
(c) the capacitance of the capacitor so formed.
(ii) Two metallic spheres of radii and are charged so that both of these have same surface charge density . If they are connected to each other with a conducting wire, in which direction will the charge flow and why?

Solution:
(i) Derivation for electric field due to infinite plane Sheet of charge Directions of field
(ii) Formula
Calculation and result
for all over curved surface and hence
By Gauss' law
If is positive points normally outwards/ away from the sheet
If is ve points normally inwards/towards the sheet
OR(i) Deriving the expression for field between the plate & outside
Direction of electric field inside and outside
Potential difference between the plates
Capacitance
(ii) Direction of flow of charge
Inside
Outside
(b) Potential difference between plates
(c) Capacitance
(ii) As potential on and inside a charged sphere is given
Hence, the bigger sphere will be at higher potential, so charge will flow from bigger sphere to smaller sphere.
(ii) Formula
Calculation and result
Symmetry of situation suggests that is perpendicular to the plane. A Gaussian surface is considered through like a cylinder of flat caps parallel to the plane and one cap passing through . The plane being the plane of symmetry for the Gaussian surface.
