This page covers how to find the electric field of a uniformly charged disk or 2 disks, which is known as a capacitor. A work in progress by Shubham Shah.
The Main Idea
Let us discuss how to find the electric field of a single, uniformly charged, disk. Then we'll see how we can apply that to capacitors.
A Mathematical Model
What are the mathematical equations that allow us to model this topic. For example [math]\displaystyle{ {\frac{d\vec{p}}{dt}}_{system} = \vec{F}_{net} }[/math] where p is the momentum of the system and F is the net force from the surroundings.
A Computational Model
