- Gauss' Law
The first image is for a conducting sheet (part of it anyway), the second is for a nonconducting sheet. Gauss' law seems to tell me that the electric field strength are different - they differ by a factor of two. Is this true?
The charge enclosed in both of them are the same, and my intuition tells me that the electric field strengths should be the same. Would appreciate some straightforward and to the point answers, as have been scratching my head on this one for a while.
