Question

(a) Determine the electric flux through this area when the electric field is perpendicular to the surface.
??? N m2/C

(b) Determine the electric flux through this area when the electric field is parallel to the surface.
??? N m2/C

A flat surface of area 3.00 m^2 is rotated in a uniform electric field of magnitude E = 5.50 x 10^5 N/C. (a) Determine the electric flux through this area when the electric field is perpendicular to the surface. ??? N ? m^2/C (b) Determine the electric flux through this area when the electric field is parallel to the surface. ??? N ? m^2/C

Explanation / Answer

flux = E cos (theta) * area

a)

flux = 5.5 * 10^5 * cos(90) * area

flux = 0

b)

flux = 5.5*10^5*cos(0) * 3

flux = 16.5 * 10^5
