As we discussed in the concept

Infinite Plane Parallel sheets of charge -

If  

 \sigma _{A}=\sigma _{B}=\sigma \rightarrow \left | E_{p} \right |=\left | E_{R} \right |=\frac{\sigma }{\epsilon _{0}}

and  EQ = 0

-

 

 E=\frac{\sigma }{K \epsilon_{0}}

 

\therefore Charge density \sigma =K \epsilon _{0}E

                                   = 2.2\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}\times 3\times 10^{4}

\sigma = 6\times 10^{-7} c/m^{2}


Option 1)

6\times 10^{-7} C/m^{2}

Option 2)

3\times 10^{-7} C/m^{2}

Option 3)

3\times 10^{4} C/m^{2}

Option 4)

6\times 10^{4} C/m^{2}
