1 Given, Sketch the electric field vectors at points 2, 3 and 4

2 N e is the electric flux through the closed surfaces below, and + and - represent equal but opposite charges: N e = (no. of outgoing field lines) - (no. of ingoing field lines) Which of the following are true? 1.2. 3.4. (a) (b) (c) (a) (b) (c) (a) (b) (c) (a) (b) (c)

3 Considering the spherical “Gauss surface” through points 1, 2, 3, 4, Is Q 1 :a) zerob) +vec) –ve? Considering the spherical “Gauss surface” through point 5, Is Q 2 :a) zerob) +vec) –ve? Recall Gauss’ law 5 (No calculation needed.)

4 Recall Gauss’ law Considering that E=0 inside the shell material, is the charge on the inside surface of the shell: a) zerob) - Q 1 c) Q 2 d) - Q 2 e) Q 2 - Q 1 Hint: Draw a Gauss surface inside the shell material.

5 What is the electric flux Φ e through the area A ? a) E b) EA c) Ax d) None of the above

6 What is the flux through area A ? a) EA b) EA sin 2 c) EA cos 2 d) none of the above

7 The conducting plate below carries a charge -Q. For the Gauss surface shown, which is the correct value of the electric flux through the Gauss surface? (d) Zero (a) = (A 1 + 2A 2 + 2A 3 + 2A 4 + 2A 5 + A 6 ) x E (b) = A 1 x 0 + 2A 2 x 0 + 2A 3 x 0 + (2A 4 + 2A 5 + A 6 ) x E (c) =A 1 x 0 + 2A 2 x 0 + 2A 3 x 0 + 2A 4 x 0 + 2A 5 x 0 + A 6 x E Hints: (1) Draw field lines from the plate (2)

8 The conducting sphere below carries a charge -Q. What is the value of the electric flux through the concentric spherical Gauss surface with radius r? Note:

9 E = 10 6 N/C at point P, 0.25 m from the centre of the long charged wire. What is the charge q in a length l = 0.10 m of the wire? Hints: - Use Gauss' law to determine Q if you know E. First, sketch field lines. Choose Gauss surface so E n = constant everywhere on it. P l

10 Field at r from spherical charge q. Gauss' law says: For the spherical charge below, 1. Sketch the form of the electric field lines, with an arrow to show direction. 2. Choose a Gauss surface which is where you want to calculate the electric field and its shape is such that = constant everywhere on it. 3. Determine the normal component of on this surface (E n ) 4. Divide the surface into bits of area ) A. What is the value of E n ) A on one of these bits? 5. What is the sum of all the E n ) A? 6. From Gauss' law, what is the value of E at the distance r from the centre of the spherical charge? E
