A flat sheet is in the shape of a rectangle with sides of lengths 0.400 m and 0.600 m. The sheet is immersed in a uniform electric field of magnitude 55.0 N/C that is directed at 20 degrees from the plane of the sheet (Figure 1).
Find the magnitude of the electric flux through the sheet.
Express your answer with the appropriate units.
When a piece of paper is held with one face perpendicular to a uniform electric field the flux through it is 185 N.m2/C. When the paper is turned such that the angle
between the surface of the paper and the electric field is 39°, find the flux through the paper. Express your answer in units of N.m2/C with one decimal place. Note
that your answer should be positive.
Find the flux in N.m².C-1 of a constant electric field E = (5.3180x10^3) i +
(-5.514x10^3)j + (-1.5880x10^3) k N/C, passing through an area defined by the
area vector A = (-4.7990x10^0) i + (-7.69x10^0) j + (4.2900x10^-1) k m².
