The Electric Field That Never Weakens, No Matter How Far Away You Go

Is it possible that there might be an electric field that never weakens, no matter how far away you go? As it turns out, yes, but only in theory! An infinite, charged plane will cause there to be an electric field that is constant no matter how far away you go; in this video, I explain why and walk you through the maths; at the same time, I also explain how this applies to real-world (circular) charged plates, and further, to the rules that describe the behaviour of capacitors in series, a notoriously difficult topic to grasp intuitively in IB Physics!
