An electric field of magnitude 4930 N/C is applied along the x axis. Calculate t

Question

An electric field of magnitude 4930 N/C is applied along the x axis. Calculate the electric flux through a rect- angular plane 0.425 m wide and 0.38 m long if the plane is parallel to the yz plane. Answer in units of N · m2/C. 011 (part 2 of 3) 10.0 points Calculate the electric flux through the same rectangle if it is parallel to the xy plane. Answer in units of N · m2/C. 012 (part 3 of 3) 10.0 points Calculate the electric flux through the same rectangle if it now contains the y axis and its normal makes an angle of 64 with the x axis. Answer in units of N · m2/C.

Explanation / Answer

a)   if the plane is parallel to the yz plane

=> Electric flux = 4930*0.425*0.38

                           = 796.195 N·m2/C

b) if it is parallel to the xy plane

=> Electric flux = 0 N·m2/C

c)    if it now contains the y axis and its normal makes an angle of 64 with the x axis

=> Electric flux = 4930*0.425*0.38*cos64

                           = 349.03 N·m2/C
