प्रश्न

A charge ‘q’ is placed at the centre of a cube of side l. What is the electric flux passing through each face of the cube?

उत्तर

By using Gauss’s Law.

It is given as

`Phi = oint vecE*dvecs = q/in_0`

Now, the flux passing through all the six surfaces would be

`Phi = 6phi =q/in_0`

And the flux passing through each surface would be

`phi = q/(6in_0)`

In 1959 Lyttleton and Bondi suggested that the expansion of the Universe could be explained if matter carried a net charge. Suppose that the Universe is made up of hydrogen atoms with a number density N, which is maintained a constant. Let the charge on the proton be: ep = – (1 + y)e where e is the electronic charge.

  1. Find the critical value of y such that expansion may start.
  2. Show that the velocity of expansion is proportional to the distance from the centre.

In finding the electric field using Gauss law the formula `|vec"E"| = "q"_"enc"/(epsilon_0|"A"|)` is applicable. In the formula ε0 is permittivity of free space, A is the area of Gaussian surface and qenc is charge enclosed by the Gaussian surface. This equation can be used in which of the following situation?
