Question
FILL IN THE BLANKSThe electric flux through a surface is determined by the integral of ? ?E·d ?A . In a
situation in which the ____________________ __________________ is ________________ to
the surface normal everywhere AND _____________ __________ ___________ over that
surface, we can replace the integral by EA.
In the given situation the electric field is ______________
_________________________ to the surface normal everywhere and we would have to perform
a difficult integration to find the electric flux through one of the surfaces.
Because the charge is ___________________________ the electric flux is
______________ the surface.
We can recognize that because of ___________________ the electric flux through each
of the surfaces is ______________ _________________ and the total electric flux through ALL
of the surfaces is ______________________. Therefore, the electric flux through a single
surface would be ________________ of the ______________ electric flux and is equal to
_______________________.
Explanation / Answer
The electric flux through a surface is determined by the integral of ? ?E·d ?A . In a
situation in which the direction of electric field is normal to the surface normal everywhere AND the electric flux over that surface, we can replace the integral by EA.
In the given situation the electric field is not normal to the surface normal everywhere and we would have to perform a difficult integration to find the electric flux through one of the surfaces.
