Step 1
Electric flux is a measure of the electric field passing through a given area. It is given by the equation: Electric Flux = Electric Field * Area * cos(theta) where theta is the angle between the electric field and the normal to the area. In the initial Show more…

A rectangular area is rotated in a uniform electric field, from a position where the maximum electric flux goes through it to an orientation where only half the maximum flux goes through it. What is the angle of rotation?
A plane surface is rotated in a uniform electric field. When is the flux of the electric field through the surface maximum? Select one: a.When the surface is at an angle of 45° to the field b.When the surface is perpendicular to the field. c.When the surface is parallel to the field. d.Impossible to get maximum electric flux.

Consider a uniform electric field $\mathbf{E}=3 \times 10^{3} \hat{\mathbf{1}} \mathrm{N} / \mathrm{C} .$ (a) What is the flux of this field through a square of $10 \mathrm{~cm}$ on a side whose plane is parallel to the $y z$ plane? (b) What is the flux through the same square if the normal to its plane makes a $60^{\circ}$ angle with the $x$ -axis?
