An electric field of magnitude 464 V/m passing through a flat square plate of length 0.644 m on a side makes an angle of 63.6 degrees with the surface of plate. Determine the electric flux passing through the surface of the square plate. (Hint: the angle given here is the angle that the field makes with the surface, not with the area vector. In what direction does the area vector of a surface point relative to that surface?)
Consider a particle of charge q = 2.4 C and mass m = 1.5 kg passing through the region between a pair of infinitely long horizontal plates separated by a distance d = 4.5 m with a uniform electric field strength E = 36 N/C directed in the downwards direction (-y direction).

C.Suppose that the eletric field is directed upward instead of downward.Caculate the new horizontal distance, in meters, that the particle travels before striking one the plates.
I'm a little confused here. Why is E = (1/e0) *integral row dx? Isn't Integral(E dA) = Qenc/e0 = integral (row dV)/e0. I'm not sure if what you wrote follows from Gauss' Law. Where did you expression from for the junction potentional? I don't see it my book or anywhere else.
A positive charge q is fixed at point (3,4) and a negative charge −q is fixed at point (3,0). Determine the net electric force F→net acting on a negative test charge −Q at the origin (0,0) in terms of the given quantities and physical constants, including the permittivity of free space ε0. Express the force using ij unit vector notation. Enter precise fractions rather than entering their approximate numerical values.
A charged plastic rod, when placed near a neutral, tiny, thin piece of paper, can pick up the paper. Which of the following is the best explanation for why this occurs? ANSWER O O O O O The piece of paper is a conductor, and charges of the opposite sign as the rod can move in the conductor closer to the rod. The paper actually had a slight charge to begin with, as nothing can exactly be neutral in nature. There are induced dipoles created in the paper from the presence of the nearby plastic rod. The described phenomenon is actually impossible, as a charged rod can't pick up a neutral piece of paper. I DON'T KNOW YET
The classic Millikan oil drop experiment was the first to obtain an accurate measurement of the charge on an electron. In it, oil drops were suspended against the gravitational force by a vertical electric field. 1a. Given the oil drop to be 0.99 μm in radius and have a density of 910 kg/m3: Find the weight of the drop. 1b.If the drop has a single excess electron, find the electric field strength needed to balance its weight. This is not and will not be graded
Consider an infinitely long wire of charge carrying a positive charge density of A. The electric field due to λ this line of charge is given by E= 2kef= -, where is a unit vector directed radially outward Σπερμ from the infinitely long wire of charge. Hint #3 a. Letting the voltage be zero at some reference distance (V(ro) = 0), calculate the voltage due to this infinite line of charge at some distance r from the line of charge. Give your answer in terms of given quantities (A,ro,r) and physical constants (ke or Eo). Use underscore ("_") for subscripts and spell out Greek letters. Hint for V(r) calculation 3 V(r) = b. There is a reason we are not setting V(r → ∞o) = 0 as we normally do (in fact, in general, whenever you have an infinite charge distribution, this "universal reference" does not work; you need a localized charge distribution for this reference to work). Which of the following best describes what happens to potential as roo? (That is, what is V(ro), with our current…
