Physics Question on Gauss Law
A cubical volume is bounded by the surfaces x=0,x=a,y=0,y=a,z=0,z=a The electric field in the region is given by E=E0xt^ Where E0=4×104NC−1m−1 If a=2cm, the charge contained in the cubical volume is Q×10−14C The value of Q is ___ Take E0=9×10−2C2/Nm2
Answer
The correct answer is 288.
E=E0×i^
ϕnet =ϕABCD=E0a⋅a2
ϵ0qen =E0a3
qen=E0∈0a3
=4×104×9×10−12×8×10−6
=288×10−14C
Q=288
