explain the gauss theorem
Answers
Answer:
The total of the electric flux out of a closed surface is equal to the charge enclosed divided by the permittivity. The electric flux through an area is defined as the electric field multiplied by the area of the surface projected in a plane perpendicular to the field.
imageConsider a uniform charged infinite plane sheet having uniform surface charge density σ. Point P is situated at a perpendicular distance r from the given plan. Then the electric filed intensity as per the Gauss’ law is:
E = σ/(2ε0)
Here we have
σ = Surface charge density
ε0 = electrical permittivity of free space.
Answer:
Explanation:
According to the Gauss law, the total flux linked with a closed surface is 1/ε0 times the charge enclosed by the closed surface.
∮E⃗ .d⃗ s=1∈0q .
According to Gauss Law,
Φ = → E.d → A
Φ = Φcurved + Φtop + Φbottom
Φ = → E . d → A = ∫E . dA cos 0 + ∫E . dA cos 90° + ∫E . dA cos 90°
Φ = ∫E . dA × 1
Due to radial symmetry, the curved surface is equidistant from the line of charge and the electric field in the surface has a constant magnitude throughout.
Φ = ∫E . dA = E ∫dA = E . 2πrl
The net charge enclosed by the surface is:
qnet = λ.l
Using Gauss theorem,
Φ = E × 2πrl = qnet/ε0 = λl/ε0
E × 2πrl = λl/ε0
E = λ/2πrε0
