Answer 1

heya @user
here is your answer

_____________________________


Following are the methodology :-

STEP 1 : identify the symmetry properties of the charges distribution

STEP 2 : determine the direction of the electric field and the surface on which the magnitude of the electric field is constant.

STEP 3 : decide how many different regions of space the charge distribution determines.

STEP 4 : for each reason of space, chooses the Gaussian surface such that flux integral is simplest

STEP 5 : calculate the flux through the Gaussian surface

STEP 6 : for each region of space, calculate the charge enclosed in the choice of Gaussian surface for that region

STEP 7 : for each region of space, equate the two side of Gauss law in order to find an expression for the magnitude of electric field in the that reason of space.

STEP 8 : graph the magnitude of electric field as a function of the parameter specifying the Gaussian surface for all region of space.
