JEE Main 27 August 2021, Shift 1, Physics Q11

Question 11 of 90 in this shift, Physics question 11 of 30, Section A.

A uniformly charged disc of radius R having surface charge density σ\sigma is placed in the xyxy plane with its center at the origin. Find the electric field intensity along the zz-axis at a distance Z from origin :
  1. (1)E=σ2ε0(1+Z(Z2+R2)1/2)\mathrm{E}=\frac{\sigma}{2\varepsilon_0}\left(1+\frac{\mathrm{Z}}{(\mathrm{Z}^2+\mathrm{R}^2)^{1/2}}\right)
  2. (2)E=σ2ε0(1−Z(Z2+R2)1/2)\mathrm{E}=\frac{\sigma}{2\varepsilon_0}\left(1-\frac{\mathrm{Z}}{(\mathrm{Z}^2+\mathrm{R}^2)^{1/2}}\right)Official answer
  3. (3)E=2ε0σ(1(Z2+R2)1/2+Z)\mathrm{E}=\frac{2\varepsilon_0}{\sigma}\left(\frac{1}{(\mathrm{Z}^2+\mathrm{R}^2)^{1/2}}+\mathrm{Z}\right)
  4. (4)E=σ2ε0(1(Z2+R2)+1Z2)\mathrm{E}=\frac{\sigma}{2\varepsilon_0}\left(\frac{1}{(\mathrm{Z}^2+\mathrm{R}^2)}+\frac{1}{\mathrm{Z}^2}\right)
