A uniform electric field of magnitude E = 100 N/C exists in the space in X-direction. What is the flux of this field through a plane square area of edge 10 cm placed in the Y-Z plane? Take the normal along the positive X-axis to be positive |
0.5 N-m2 1 N-m2 1.5 N-m2 1.7 N-m2 |
1 N-m2 |
The flux Φ = ∫ E.cosθ ds. As the normal to the area points along the electric field, θ = 0.
