Careful measurement of the electric fiel...

Careful measurement of the electric field at the surface of a black box indicates that the net outward flux through the surface of the box is `8.0 xx10^(3) Nm^(2)`/C. If the net outward flux through the surface of the box were zero, could you conclude that there were no charges inside the box? Why or Why not?

A uniformly charged conducting sphere of 2.4 m dimeter has a surface charge density of 80.0 mu C//m^(2) . What is the total electric flux leaving the surface of the sphere?

A point charge causes an electric flux of -1.0xx10^(3) Nm^(2)//C to pass through a spherical Gaussian surface of 10.0 cm radius centred on the charge. What is the value of the point charge?

(A): A point charge is lying at the centre of a cube of each side. The electric flux emanating from each surface of the cube is (1^(th))/(6) total flux. (R ): According to Gauss theorem, total electric flux through a closed surface enclosing a charge is equal to 1//epsi_(0) times the magnitude of the charge enclosed.
