What is the electric flux through one side of a cube that has a single point charge of -3.80 µC placed at its center? Hint: You do not need to integrate any equations to get the answer.

? N·m^2/C

φ = -7.16 × 10⁴ Nm²/C

Explanation:

q = -3.80 × 10⁻⁶ C

ε₀ = 8.85 10⁻¹² C²/Nm²

By Gauss's law

φ = q/ε₀

as the cube has 6 faces so for one side the flux will

φ =1/6 ( q/ε₀)

φ = 1/6 ( -3.80 × 10⁻⁶ C / 8.85 10⁻¹² C²/Nm²)

φ = -71,563.088 Nm²/C

φ = -7.16 × 10⁴ Nm²/C

-7.00 x 10⁴Nm²/C

Let the single point charge of -3.80µC be Q

i.e

Q = -3.80µC = -3.80 x 10⁻⁶C

From Gauss's law, the total electric flux,φ, through an enclosed surface is equal to the quotient of the enclosed charge Q, and the permittivity of free space, ε₀. i.e;

φ = Q / ε₀     (i)

Where;

ε₀ = known constant = 8.85 x 10⁻¹²F/m

Now, If the total flux through the enclosed cube is given by equation (i), then the flux, φ₁, through one of the six sides of the cube is found by dividing the equation by 6 and is given as follows;

φ₁ = Q / 6ε₀     (ii)

Substitute the values of  Q and ε₀ into equation (ii) as follows;

φ₁ = -3.80 x 10⁻⁶ / (6 x 8.85 x 10⁻¹²)

φ₁ = -0.07 x 10⁶

φ₁ = -7.00 x 10⁴

Therefore, the electric flux through one side of the cube is -7.00 x 10⁴ Nm²/C

Note:

The result (flux) above is negative to show that the electric field lines from the point charge points radially inwards in all directions.

convex lenses are thicker at the middle. rays of light that pass through the lens are brought closer together (they converge). a convex lens is a converging lens. when parallel rays of light pass through a convex lens the refracted rays converge at one point called the principal focus.

here we know that ball will drop down by total distance 3.2 m

so here we know that

now using kinematics

now in the same time it will cover horizontal distance of 0.75 m

so speed of the ball will be
