GAUSS LAW PROBLEM SOLVING

1. An 8m by 8m square-base pyramid of height 4m is placed in a uniform vertical electric field of


strength 35NC. What is the total electric flux that goes through the pyramid's four faces? (There
is no charge inside the pyramid.)

2. You have a cube with a 6μC charge in the center. Each of the cube's sides is 12cm long. What is
the flux through one of the faces of the cube?

3. The electric field at 2 cm from the center of long copper rod of radius 1 cm has a magnitude 3
N/C and directed outward from the axis of the rod.
(a) How much charge per unit length exists on the copper rod?
(b) What would be the electric flux through a cube of side 5 cm situated such that the rod passes
through opposite sides of the cube perpendicularly?

4. The electric field 10.0 cm from the surface of a copper ball of radius 5.0 cm is directed toward
the ball’s center and has magnitude 4.0×102N/C. How much charge is on the surface of the ball?

5. The electric flux through a square-shaped area of side 5 cm near a large charged sheet is found
to be 3×10−5N⋅m2/C. when the area is parallel to the plate. Find the charge density on the sheet.
COULOUMB’S LAW PROBLEM SOLVING

1. A positive charge of 6×10-6 C is 0.040m from the second positive charge of 4×10-6 C. Calculate the
force between the charges.

Given
q1 = 6×10-6 C
q2 = 4×10-6 C
r = 0.040 m

2. Two-point charges, q1 = +9 μC and q2 = 4 μC, are separated by a distance r = 12 cm. What is the
magnitude of the electric force?

Given
k = 8.988 x 109 Nm2C−2
q1 = 9 ×10-6 C
q2 = 4 ×10-6 C
r = 12cm = 0.12 m

3. Determine the electrostatic force between the two charges of magnitude 2 C and -1 C separated
by a distance 1m in air.

Given
k = 9 x 109 Nm2/C2
q1 = 2C
q2 = -1C
r = 1m

4. The distance between the two electrons in contact is equal to 1Å. Determine the Coulomb force
between them.

Given
k = 9 x 109 Nm2/C2
q = -1.6 x 10-19 C
r=1Å

5. Consider a system of two charges of magnitude 2 × 10-7 C and 4.5 × 10-7 C which is acted upon
by a force of 0.1 N. What is the distance between the two charges?

Given
k = 9 x 109 Nm2/C2
q1 = 2 x 10-7 C
q2 = 4.5 x 10-7 C
