प्रश्न
A charge Q is placed at a distance a/2 above the centre of a horizontal, square surface of edge a as shown in the following figure . Find the flux of the electric field through the square surface.
उत्तर
Given:-
Edge length of the square surface = a
Distance of the charge Q from the square surface = a/2
Area of the plane = a2
Assume that the given surface is one of the faces of the imaginary cube.
Then, the charge is found to be at the centre of the cube.
A charge is placed at a distance of about `"a"/2` from the centre of the surface.
The electric field due to this charge is passing through the six surfaces of the cube.
Hence flux through each surface,
`phi = "Q"/∈_0 xx 1/6 = "Q"/(6∈_0)`
Thus, the flux through the given surface is `"Q"/(6∈_0).`

Given below are two statements:
- Statement I: The electric force changes the speed of the charged particle and hence changes its kinetic energy; whereas the magnetic force does not change the kinetic energy of the charged particle.
- Statement II: The electric force accelerates the positively charged particle perpendicular to the direction of the electric field. The magnetic force accelerates the moving charged particle along the direction of the magnetic field.
In light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below.
