6)An electric field of 6 N/C points in the positive X direction. What is the electric flux through a surface that is 4 m2, if its surface normal isin the XY plane and along a line that isinclined at 60 degrees to the positive Y axisand 30 degrees to the positive X axis

Respuesta :

Answer:

Flux is 21 Nm^2/C.

Explanation:

Electric field, E = 6 N/C along X axis

Electric filed vector, E = 6 i N/C

Area, A = 4 square meter

Area vector

[tex]\overrightarrow{A} = 4 (cos30 \widehat{i} + sin 30 \widehat{j})\\\\\overrightarrow{A} = 3.5 \widehat{i} + 2 \widehat{j}\\[/tex]

The flux is given by

[tex]\phi= \overrightarrow{E}.\overrightarrow{A}\\\\\phi = 6 \widehat{i} . \left (3.5 \widehat{i} + 2 \widehat{j} \right )\\\\\phi = 21 Nm^2/C[/tex]
