A vertical wall (8.7 m x 3.2 m) in a house faces due east. A uniform electric field has a magnitude of 210 N/C. This field is parallel to the ground and points 42o north of east. What is the electric flux through the wall

Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]\phi=4344.72Nm^2/c[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Dimension of Wall:

 [tex](L*B)=(8.7 m * 3.2 m)[/tex]

Electric field [tex]B=210 N/C[/tex]

Angle [tex]\theta =42 \textdegree North[/tex]

Generally the equation for electric Flux is mathematically given by

 [tex]\phi=EAcos\theta[/tex]

 [tex]\phi=210*(8.7*3.2)*cos 42[/tex]

 [tex]\phi=4344.72Nm^2/c[/tex]
