Answer : Option D
Explanation :
In case of capacitor, the charges on two plates of capacitor are of opposite sign.
We know that electric field due to infinite sheet charge with density rs is 
Outside the capacitor, electric field intensities due to upper plate and lower plate cancel each other.
∴ Eoutside = 0
Inside the capacitor, the electric field intensities due to upper and lower plate add together
∴
