BITS Edu Campus - Varnama Engineering Electromagnetics (2151002) Tutorial No. 4

This document contains 13 questions about electric fields and charges from an engineering electromagnetics tutorial. The questions cover definitions of electric field strength, line charge, and sheet charge. They ask the reader to calculate electric field intensities and forces between various charge configurations, including point charges, line charges, and sheet charges in different arrangements and locations in free space. The final questions ask about superposition of charges and derive expressions for electric field due to a line charge and an infinite sheet of charge.
