a. 1000N/C
b. 500N/C
c. Impossible to say since we are not given Q and A
d. 250 N/C

    Answer:

    a. 1000N/C

    Explanation:

    Data mentioned in the question

    Electrical field magnitude = 1000 NC

    Perpendicular distance = 0.1 m

    Perpendicular distance = 0.2 m

    Based on the above information, the electric field is

    As we know that

    E = \frac{\sigma}{2\times E_o}

    where,

    \sigma = surface charge density

    E = distance from nearby point to sheet i.e be independent

    The distance at 0.1 and 0.2, the electric field would remain the same

    So,

    Based on the above explanation, the first option is correct
