Φ1=E.dS=EdS cos 0°=EdS
At the points on the curved surface,the field vector E and area vector dS make an angle of
90° with each other.
So, φ2=E.dS=EdS cos 90°=0
Therefore,cylindrical surface does not contribute to the flux.
Hence, the total flux through the closed surface is
Φ=φ1+φ1+ φ2 (there are two end caps)
Or φ=EdS+EdS+0=2EdS (1)
Now according to Gauss’s law for electrostatics
Φ=q/ε0 (2)
Comparing equations (1) and (2),we get
2EdS=q/ε0
Or E=q/2ε0dS (3)
The area of sheet enclosed in the Gaussian cylinder is also dS. Therefore,the charge contained in the cylinder,q=σdS (σ=q/dS)
Substituting this value of q in equation (3),we get
E=σdS/2ε0dS
Or E=σ/2ε0

infinite thin sheet of charged conductor
________________________________
first understand what is difference between sheet and plate in electrostatic ?
sheet => both side charge
plate => one side charge
here , mentioned sheet , then surely charge will appear in both side of conductor .
now, Use the Gauss concept for finding electric field .
Let Q present in charged sheet conductor .
because , I clearify that both side charge presents in sheet .
so, each side charge share = Q/2
now, Gauss formula,
Φ = Qnet/2ε₀
here , Qnet at one side = Q/2
also we know, Φ { electric flux near the surface of sheet } = E{electric field near the surface} × A { cross section Area of gaussian surface is chosen by us }
so, EA = Q/2ε₀
E = Q/2Aε₀= {Q/A}/2ε
we know, Q/A = surface charge density = σ
E = σ/2ε₀
hence, electric field at a point near an infinite sheet of charged conductor is σ/2ε₀
