12th Class Physics Electric Charges and Fields Question Bank MCQ - Electric Charges and Fields

  • question_answer
    A uniform electric field \[E=2\times {{10}^{3}}\,N{{C}^{-1}}\]is acting along the positive X-axis. The flux of this field through a square of 10 cm on a side whose plane is parallel to the y-z plane is:

    A) \[20\,N{{C}^{-1}}{{m}^{2}}\]                      

    B) \[30\,N{{C}^{-1}}{{m}^{2}}\]

    C) \[10\,N{{C}^{-1}}{{m}^{2}}\]                      

    D) \[40\,N{{C}^{-1}}{{m}^{2}}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    \[20\,N{{C}^{-1}}\,{{m}^{2}}\] Here,       \[E=2\times {{10}^{3}}\,N{{C}^{-1}}\]is along + X-axis Surface area, \[S={{\left( 10\,cm \right)}^{2}}\] \[={{10}^{2}}\times {{10}^{-4}}{{m}^{2}}={{10}^{-2}}{{m}^{2}}\] When plane is parallel to y-z plane, \[\theta =0{}^\circ \] So,         \[\phi =ES\,\cos \theta =2\times {{10}^{3}}\times {{10}^{-2}}\cos 0{}^\circ \] \[=20\,N{{C}^{-1}}{{m}^{2}}\]
