Textbook Question

Chapter 23, Problem 71P

A Gaussian surface in the form of a hemisphere of radius R = 5.68 cm lies in a uniform electric field of magnitude E = 2.50 N/C. The surface encloses no net charge. At the (flat) base of the surface, the field is perpendicular to the surface and directed into the surface. What is the flux through (a) the base and (b) the curved portion of the surface?

You are tasked with designing a parallel-plate capacitor using two square metal plates, eachwith an area of 0.5 m², separated by a 0.1 mm thick layer of air. However, to increase the capacitance,you decide to insert a dielectric material with a dielectric constant κ = 3.0 between the plates. Describewhat happens (and why) to the E field between the plates when the dielectric is added in place of theair.

Calculate the work required to assemble a uniform charge Q on a thin spherical shell of radiusR. Start with no charge and add infinitesimal charges dq until the total charge reaches Q, assuming thecharge is always evenly distributed over the shell’s surface. Show all steps.
