The correct Answer is:
To find the net charge inside the die based on the given electric flux through each face, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Electric Flux**: The electric flux (Φ) through each face of the die is given in units of \(10^3 \, \text{N m}^2/\text{C}\) and corresponds to the number of spots (N) on that face. For odd N, the flux is inward (negative), and for even N, it is outward (positive). 2. **Calculating the Total Electric Flux**: We need to calculate the total electric flux through all six faces of the die: - Face 1: \(Φ_1 = -1 \times 10^3 \, \text{N m}^2/\text{C}\) (inward) - Face 2: \(Φ_2 = +2 \times 10^3 \, \text{N m}^2/\text{C}\) (outward) - Face 3: \(Φ_3 = -3 \times 10^3 \, \text{N m}^2/\text{C}\) (inward) - Face 4: \(Φ_4 = +4 \times 10^3 \, \text{N m}^2/\text{C}\) (outward) - Face 5: \(Φ_5 = -5 \times 10^3 \, \text{N m}^2/\text{C}\) (inward) - Face 6: \(Φ_6 = +6 \times 10^3 \, \text{N m}^2/\text{C}\) (outward) Now, summing these values: \[ \text{Total Flux} = (-1 + 2 - 3 + 4 - 5 + 6) \times 10^3 = (3) \times 10^3 \, \text{N m}^2/\text{C} \] 3. **Using Gauss's Law**: According to Gauss's Law, the total electric flux through a closed surface is equal to the net charge (Q) enclosed by that surface divided by the permittivity of free space (ε₀): \[ \Phi = \frac{Q}{\epsilon_0} \] Rearranging gives: \[ Q = \Phi \cdot \epsilon_0 \] 4. **Calculating the Net Charge**: We know: - \(\Phi = 3 \times 10^3 \, \text{N m}^2/\text{C}\) - The permittivity of free space, \(\epsilon_0 = 8.85 \times 10^{-12} \, \text{C}^2/\text{N m}^2\) Substituting these values into the equation for Q: \[ Q = (3 \times 10^3) \cdot (8.85 \times 10^{-12}) \] \[ Q = 2.655 \times 10^{-8} \, \text{C} \] Rounding gives: \[ Q \approx 2.7 \times 10^{-8} \, \text{C} \] ### Final Answer: The net charge inside the die is approximately \(2.7 \times 10^{-8} \, \text{C}\).
