The electric flux through a closed surface is given by the equation:
Φ = q/ε₀
Where Φ is the electric flux, q is the charge enclosed by the surface, and ε₀ is the permittivity of free space.
In this case, the charge enclosed by the sphere is q = 6 nC = 6 * 10^-9 C. The permittivity of free space is ε₀ = 8.85 * 10^-12 N m^2/C^2.
Plugging these values into the equation, we get:
Φ = (6 * 10^-9 C)/(8.85 * 10^-12 N m^2/C^2)
= 677.97 N m^2/C
Therefore, the resulting electric flux through the sphere is 677.97 N m^2/C.
So the correct answer is:
677.97 N m^2/C

The magnitude of the electric field between two parallel plates with potential difference V and separation distance d is given by:
E = V/d
In this case, the potential difference is V = 60 V and the separation distance is d = 6 cm = 0.06 m.
Plugging these values into the equation, we get:
E = 60 V / 0.06 m
= 1000 V/m
Therefore, the magnitude of the electric field in the space between the plates is 1000 V/m.
So the correct answer is:
1000 V/m
E = V/d
In this case, the potential difference is V = 60 V and the separation distance is d = 6 cm = 0.06 m.
Plugging these values into the equation, we get:
E = 60 V / 0.06 m
= 1000 V/m
Therefore, the magnitude of the electric field in the space between the plates is 1000 V/m.
So the correct answer is:
1000 V/m
Three point charges are arranged along the x-axis. Charge q subscript 1 equals plus 6 mu C is at the origin, charge q subscript 2 equals negative 10 mu C is at x equals 0.4 m and charge q subscript 3 equals negative 16 mu C. Where is q subscript 3 located if the net force on q subscript 1 is 14 N in the minusx-direction (negative)?
To determine the location of q3, we can use Coulomb's Law to calculate the net force on q1 caused by q2 and q3 and then use the principle of superposition to find the net force.
Coulomb's Law states that the force between two charges is given by:
F = k * (|q1| * |q2|) / r^2
where F is the force, k is the electrostatic constant (9 × 10^9 N m^2/C^2), q1 and q2 are the charges, and r is the distance between the charges.
Let's calculate the forces between q1 and q2, and between q1 and q3.
Force between q1 and q2:
F12 = k * (|q1| * |q2|) / r12^2
= 9 × 10^9 N m^2/C^2 * (6 μC * 10 μC) / (0.4 m)^2
Force between q1 and q3:
F13 = k * (|q1| * |q3|) / r13^2
= 9 × 10^9 N m^2/C^2 * (6 μC * 16 μC) / (r13)^2
Since the net force on q1 is given as 14 N in the -x direction, we know that the total force (Fnet) on q1 is the sum of the forces F12 and F13:
Fnet = F12 + F13
Substituting the calculated values, we have:
14 N = (9 × 10^9 N m^2/C^2 * (6 μC * 10 μC) / (0.4 m)^2) + (9 × 10^9 N m^2/C^2 * (6 μC * 16 μC) / (r13)^2)
Let's solve this equation for r13:
14 N = ((54 * 10^-6 C^2) / (0.4 m)^2) + ((86 * 10^-6 C^2) / r13^2)
Multiplying through by r13^2:
14 N * r13^2 = (54 * 10^-6 C^2) + (86 * 10^-6 C^2)
Dividing through by 10^-6 C^2:
14 * 10^6 N * r13^2 = 54 + 86
Let's simplify:
14 * 10^6 N * r13^2 = 140
r13^2 = 140 / (14 * 10^6 N)
r13^2 = 10 / (10^6 N)
r13^2 = 10^-5 / N
Taking the square root of both sides:
r13 = √(10^-5 / N)
Therefore, the location of q3 is at a distance of √(10^-5 / N) from q1 along the x-axis.
Coulomb's Law states that the force between two charges is given by:
F = k * (|q1| * |q2|) / r^2
where F is the force, k is the electrostatic constant (9 × 10^9 N m^2/C^2), q1 and q2 are the charges, and r is the distance between the charges.
Let's calculate the forces between q1 and q2, and between q1 and q3.
Force between q1 and q2:
F12 = k * (|q1| * |q2|) / r12^2
= 9 × 10^9 N m^2/C^2 * (6 μC * 10 μC) / (0.4 m)^2
Force between q1 and q3:
F13 = k * (|q1| * |q3|) / r13^2
= 9 × 10^9 N m^2/C^2 * (6 μC * 16 μC) / (r13)^2
Since the net force on q1 is given as 14 N in the -x direction, we know that the total force (Fnet) on q1 is the sum of the forces F12 and F13:
Fnet = F12 + F13
Substituting the calculated values, we have:
14 N = (9 × 10^9 N m^2/C^2 * (6 μC * 10 μC) / (0.4 m)^2) + (9 × 10^9 N m^2/C^2 * (6 μC * 16 μC) / (r13)^2)
Let's solve this equation for r13:
14 N = ((54 * 10^-6 C^2) / (0.4 m)^2) + ((86 * 10^-6 C^2) / r13^2)
Multiplying through by r13^2:
14 N * r13^2 = (54 * 10^-6 C^2) + (86 * 10^-6 C^2)
Dividing through by 10^-6 C^2:
14 * 10^6 N * r13^2 = 54 + 86
Let's simplify:
14 * 10^6 N * r13^2 = 140
r13^2 = 140 / (14 * 10^6 N)
r13^2 = 10 / (10^6 N)
r13^2 = 10^-5 / N
Taking the square root of both sides:
r13 = √(10^-5 / N)
Therefore, the location of q3 is at a distance of √(10^-5 / N) from q1 along the x-axis.
