Question

For this question, Figure 2 (see image). Consider the electric field of a disk of radius R and surface charge density σ along the z-axis as:

(see image)

a) Use this expression to find the electric field of the disk very close to the disk i.e. Z << R such that the disk looks like an infinite plane with surface charge density σ. 

b) Use a Gaussian cylinder (pill box) to find the electric field of the plate at this limit (Z << R such that the disk looks like an infinite plane), and compare it with your answer from part a.
