InFIGURE Q24.4, where the field is uniform, is the magnitude of larger than, smaller than, or equal to the magnitude of ? Explain.

The electric field is constant over each face of the cube shown in FIGURE EX24.4. Does the box contain positive charge, negative charge, or no charge? Explain.

FIGURE EX24.2 shows a cross section of two concentric spheres. The inner sphere has a negative charge. The outer sphere has a positive charge larger in magnitude than the charge on the inner sphere. Draw this figure on your paper, then draw electric field vectors showing the shape of the electric field.
The two spheres in FIGURE Q24.8 on the next page surround equal charges. Three students are discussing the situation.
Student 1: The fluxes through spheres A and B are equal because they enclose equal charges.
Student 2: But the electric field on sphere B is weaker than the electric field on sphere A. The flux depends on the electric field strength, so the flux through A is larger than the flux through B.
Student 3: I thought we learned that flux was about surface area. Sphere B is larger than sphere A, so I think the flux through B is larger than the flux through A.
Which of these students, if any, do you agree with? Explain.

million excess electrons are inside a closed surface. What is the net electric flux through the surface?
