Figure 23-24 shows, in cross section, two Gaussian spheres and two Gaussian cubes that are centered on a positively charged particle. (a) Rank the net flux through the four Gaussian surfaces, greatest first. (b) Rank the magnitudes of the electric fields on the surfaces, greatest first, and indicate whether the magnitudes are uniform or variable along each surface.

A flat sheet of paper is cut into an equilateral hexagon that is oriented so that the normal to the sheet is at an angle of 60 degrees to a uniform electric field of magnitude 14 MN/C. If the length of the line formed by joining the first and the fourth vertex is 200 mm, find the magnitude of the electric flux through the sheet.

In Fig-1, there are two infinite planes A and B, parallel to the YZ plane. Their surface charge densities are σA = −47nC/m2 and σB = 28nC/m2. The separation between the planes A and B is d = 10m. a) Now, we place a conducting spherical shell of radius R=0.1d in between the planes. The spherical shell conductor carries a surface charge density σ = −25μC/m2. The coordinates of the center(d/2,d/2,0), P1 (4d/5, d/2, 0) and P2 (d/2, d/4, 0). Find the net electric field at points P1 and P2 in unit vector notation.

A point charge qq is at the point x=0,y=0,z=0.x=0,y=0,z=0. An imaginary hemispherical surface is made by starting with a spherical surface of radius RR centered on the point x=0,y=0,z=0x=0,y=0,z=0 and cutting off the half in the region z<0.z<0. The normal to this surface points out of the hemisphere, away from its center. Calculate the electric flux through the hemisphere if (a) q=8.00 nCq=8.00 nC and R=0.100 m;R=0.100 m; (b) q=−4.00 nCq=−4.00 nC and R=0.100 m;R=0.100 m; (c) q=−4.00 nCq=−4.00 nC and R=0.200 m;.
