Find the electric flux through each face...

Find the electric flux through each face of a hollow cube of side 10 cm, if a charge of 8.85 `muC` is placed at the cnetre.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The side of a hollow cude `=10xx10^-2m,`
Charge `q = 8.85xx10^-6C`

Total number of sides of a hollow cube = 6
According to Gauss.s theorem the electric flux through each force is given by
`phi = 1/6q/epsilon_0=1/6xx(8.85xx10^-6)/(8.85xx10^-12)`
`=(1xx10^6)/6`
`=1.67xx10^5Nm^2C^-1`
`{:{:("Electric fux through"),("each face"):}}= 1.67xx10^5Nm^2C^-1`
