A charge ‘q’ is placed at the centre of a cube of side l. What is the electric flux passing through each face of the cube?

उत्तर

By using Gauss’s Law.

It is given as

`Phi = oint vecE*dvecs = q/in_0`

Now, the flux passing through all the six surfaces would be

`Phi = 6phi =q/in_0`

And the flux passing through each surface would be

`phi = q/(6in_0)`

Consider a region inside which there are various types of charges but the total charge is zero. At points outside the region

  1. the electric field is necessarily zero.
  2. the electric field is due to the dipole moment of the charge distribution only.
  3. the dominant electric field is `∞ 1/r^3`, for large r, where r is the distance from a origin in this region.
  4. the work done to move a charged particle along a closed path, away from the region, will be zero.

Refer to the arrangement of charges in figure and a Gaussian surface of radius R with Q at the centre. Then

The region between two concentric spheres of radii a < b contain volume charge density ρ(r) = `"c"/"r"`, where c is constant and r is radial- distanct from centre no figure needed. A point charge q is placed at the origin, r = 0. Value of c is in such a way for which the electric field in the region between the spheres is constant (i.e. independent of r). Find the value of c:


In finding the electric field using Gauss law the formula `|vec"E"| = "q"_"enc"/(epsilon_0|"A"|)` is applicable. In the formula ε0 is permittivity of free space, A is the area of Gaussian surface and qenc is charge enclosed by the Gaussian surface. This equation can be used in which of the following situation?
