What will be the total flux through the faces of the cube as in figure with side of length $a$ if a charge $q$ is placed at ?
$(a)$ $A$ $:$ a corner of the cube.
$(b)$ $B$ $:$ midpoint of an edge of the cube.
$(a)$ Cube has $8$ corners. Charge on each corner $=\frac{q}{8 \times 1}=\frac{q}{8}$
$\therefore$ Electric flux at $\mathrm{A}$,
$\phi=\frac{q}{8 \epsilon_{0}}$
$(b)$ If the charge $q$ is placed at $B$, middle point of an edge of the cube, it is being shared equally by $4 $cubes.
$\therefore$ Flux through each cube,
$\phi=\frac{\phi^{\prime}}{4}=\frac{q}{4 \epsilon_{0}}$
Consider a uniform electric field $E =3 \times 10^{3} i\; N / C .$
$(a)$ What is the flux of this field through a square of $10 \;cm$ on a side whose plane is parallel to the $y z$ plane?
$(b)$ What is the flux through the same square if the normal to its plane makes a $60^{\circ}$ angle with the $x -$axis?
Gauss’s law states that
Give characteristics of electric field lines.
An electrostatic field line leaves at an angle $\alpha$ from point charge $q_{1}$ and connects with point charge $-q_{2}$ at an angle $\beta\left(q_{1}\right.$ and $q_{2}$ are positive) see figure below. If $q_{2}=\frac{3}{2} q_{1}$ and $\alpha=30^{\circ}$, then
As shown in figure, a cuboid lies in a region with electric field $E=2 x^2 \hat{i}-4 y \hat{j}+6 \hat{k} \quad N / C$. The magnitude of charge within the cuboid is $n \varepsilon_0 C$. The value of $n$ is $............$ (if dimension of cuboid is $1 \times 2 \times 3 \;m ^3$ )
