Aclosed cylinder with a 0.15-m radius ends is in a uniform electric field of 300 n/c, perpendicular to the ends. the total flux through the cylinder is:

The total flux through the cylinder is zero.

In fact, the electric flux through a surface (for a uniform electric field) is given by:

where

E is the intensity of the electric field

A is the surface

is the angle between the direction of E and the perpendicular to the surface, whose direction is always outwards of the surface.

We can ignore the lateral surface of the cylinder, since the electric field is parallel to it, therefore the flux through the lateral surface of the cylinder is zero (because and ).

On the other two surfaces, the flux is equal and with opposite sign. In fact, on the first surface the flux will be

where r is the radius, and where we have taken since the perpendicular to the surface is parallel to the direction of the electric field, so . On the second surface, however, the perpendicular to the surface is opposite to the electric field, so and , therefore the flux is

And the net flux through the cylinder is

  the unit of the measure =

explanation:

  the property that is quantified by the energy needed per of material to raise the temperature by one.

  si unit of energy = joule (j)

  si unit of temperature = kelvin (k)

  si unit of mass of material = kilogram (kg)

the property that is quantified by the energy needed per of material to raise the temperature by one is called specific heat.

the unit of specific heat is
