A particle of charge 1.8μ°äis at the center of a Gaussian cube55cmon edge. What is the net electric flux through the surface?

Short Answer

Expert verified

The net electric flux through the surface is 2.0×105N.m2/C.

Step by step solution

01

The given data

  1. Charge of the particle,q=1.8μ°ä
  2. Edge length of cube,a=55cm1m100cm=0.55m
02

Understanding the concept of Gauss law-planar symmetry

Using the concept of Gauss law and the planar symmetry, we can get the required values of the electric field at the left of the plates, right of the plates, and between the plates.

Formula:

The total flux through any surface, ϕ=qε0 (1)

03

Calculation of the net flux through any cube surface

As the cube has six surfaces, thus, the net flux through each surface of the cube is given using equation (1) such that,

ϕ=1.8×10-6C6×8.85×10-12C2/N.m2=2.0×105N.m2/C

Hence, the value of the required flux is2.0×105N.m2/C

When a shower is turned on in a closed bathroom, the splashing of the water on the bare tub can fill the room’s air with negatively charged ions and produce an electric field in the air as great as 1000N/C. Consider a bathroom with dimensions2.5m×3.0m×2.0m. Along the ceiling, floor, and four walls, approximate the electric field in the air as being directed perpendicular to the surface and as having a uniform magnitude of600N/C. Also, treat those surfaces as forming a closed Gaussian surface around the room’s air. What are (a) the volume charge density r and (b) the number of excess elementary charges eper cubic meter in the room’s air?

In Fig. 23-43, short sections of two very long parallel lines of charge are shown, fixed in place, separated by L=8.00 cmThe uniform linear charge densities are+6.0μ°ä/mfor line 1 and-2.0μ°ä/mfor line 2. Where along the x-axis shown is the net electric field from the two lines zero?
