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
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
