A 1.0cm1.0cm1.0cm box with its edges aligned with the xyz-axes is in the electric field E=(350x+150)i^N/C, where x is in meters. What is the net electric flux through the box?

Short Answer

Expert verified

The net electric flux through the box is=3.510-4Nm/C

Step by step solution

01

Given information and Theory used 

Given :

Dimensions of the box : 1.0cm1.0cm1.0cm

The electric field is : E=(350x+150)i^N/C

Theory used :

The net electric flux through the surface of a box is directly proportional to the magnitude of the net charge enclosed by the box. The net electric flux due to a point charge inside a box is independent of box's size, only depends on net amount of charge enclosed.

02

Calculating the net electric flux through the box 

The field points along the x-axis so it is parallel to all the four faces that encircle it and it's perpendicular to the two faces as in the figure bellow.

Therefore, all of the four faces that are parallel to the field don't contribute to net flux, only the two faces perpendicular to it do. One of them is x=0so :

E=150iN/C

The other one is x=1.0cm=0.01m, so there are two possibilities.

We get :

E=(3500.01+150)iN/C=153iN/C

by plugging in the specified numerical numbers.

Now, E1points inside, so the face atx=0contributes negatively, while E2points outside, so the face at x=1.0cmcontributes positively.

So, we have

role="math" localid="1649665790231" =-E1(0.01m)+E2(0.01m)=(0.01m)(E-E).=3.510-4Nm/C
