The figure here shows a Gaussian cube of face area Aimmersed in a uniform electric field that has the positivedirection of the z axis. In terms of E and A, what is the fluxthrough (a) the front face (which is in the xy plane), (b) therear face, (c) the top face, and (d) the whole cube?
Hello,
I understand that to calculate the net charge in the shell, I need to integrate the equation from 4 cm to 6 cm with volume charge density times 2 * pi * r * dr. However, since the problem here provides me with a novel expression of p = b/r, I am a bit lost... Could you please tell me how I can solve such problem?
Show that the total energy eigenfunctions ψ210(r, θ, φ) and ψ211(r, θ, φ) are orthogonal. Doyou have to integrate over all three variables to show this?
