Question

point charge q1=-10nC is at the origin, and point charge q2=+5nC is at point (3cm, 0, 0). calculate electric flux due to these two charges through a spherical surface centered at origin with radius 35cm


hrou8 am Taces 2. Point charge q, -10nC is at the origin, and point charge q,- +5nC is at point (3cm, 0, 0) Calculate the electric flux due to these two charges through a spherical surface centered at ti origin and with radius 35cm. thntr of the cuheasin roblem 1) there is a sphere of radjus RE0.1m with nonunifo

Explanation / Answer

2. from Gauss law,

total flux through spherical surface = Qin / e0

for sphere of r = 35 cm

Q_inside = q1 + q2 = - 10 + 5 = +5 nC

total flux = (5 x 10^-9) / (8.854 x 10^-12)

= 564.7 N m^2 / C
