Question



1) The electric field intesity in a region of space is givin by: E=Xi+Yj+Zk



where X,Y,Z are real constants



a) What should be the total flux through a sphere of radius "R" with its center at (0,0,0)?



b) What should be the charge be in Kinetic Energy of a particle of charge "+q" if it moves from the point (0,0,-R) to (R/sqrt(2), 0, R/sqrt(2))

Explanation / Answer

Hi,

From gauss law, the total electric flux through a gaussian surface is given by

                                 f = (1/eo) * (total charge inside the surface)
