IMPORTANT

The figure shows two large, closely placed, parallel, nonconducting sheets with identical (positive) uniform surface charge densities, and a sphere with a uniform (positive) volume charge density. Four points marked as 1, 2, 3 and 4 are shown in the space in between. If E1, E2, E3 and E4 are the magnitude of net electric fields at these points respectively then:
