$(a)$ Show that the normal component of the electrostatic field has a discontinuity from one side of a charged surface to another given by $(E_2 - E_1) \cdot \hat{n} = \frac{\sigma}{\varepsilon_0}$, where $\hat{n}$ is a unit vector normal to the surface at a point and $\sigma$ is the surface charge density at that point. (The direction of $\hat{n}$ is from side $1$ to side $2$.) Hence, show that just outside a conductor, the electric field is $\frac{\sigma \hat{n}}{\varepsilon_0}$. $(b)$ Show that the tangential component of the electrostatic field is continuous from one side of a charged surface to another.

Two infinitely long parallel conducting plates having surface charge densities $+\sigma$ and $-\sigma$ respectively,are separated by a small distance. The medium between the plates is vacuum. If $\varepsilon_0$ is the dielectric permittivity of vacuum,then the electric field in the region between the plates is

An infinitely long solid cylinder of radius $R$ has a uniform volume charge density $\rho$. It has a spherical cavity of radius $R/2$ with its centre on the axis of the cylinder,as shown in the figure. The magnitude of the electric field at the point $P$,which is at a distance $2R$ from the axis of the cylinder,is given by the expression $\frac{23\rho R}{16K\varepsilon_0}$. The value of $K$ is
