03 Problem 3 5 Points A plate of nonconducting material has thickness d in the zndirection and is so very large in the x and y- directions that you can take it to be infinite in extent. The material of the plate has a uniform charge density p. (a) Using Gauss' Law nd the electric eld inside the plate material and outside. A complete solution will be illustrated with suitable gaussian surfaces. Graph the magnitude Elz) versus 2. letting +E(z) represent electric field pointing along +2 and E(z)represent electric eld pointing along z. (b) Verify that the result is consistent with the E-eld of 0' an innite plane of charge, E = \"Hf Hint: calculate the equivalent surface charge density 0' from the volume charge density p
