Answer 3

karl friedrich gauss

Question 4

it is the product of the magnitude of the electric field and the surface area, A, perpendicular to the field

Answer 4

electric flux

Question 5

where does the positive point charge located in a sphere?

Answer 5

at the center

Question 5

true or flase: in a cube The field lines pass through two
surfaces perpendicularly and are parallel to the other four surfaces.

Answer 5

true

Question 5

true or false: in closed surface, the net flux through the surface is inversely proportional to the net number of lines leaving the surface.

Answer 5

false

it is proportional

Question 5

what is the other term for closed surface?

Answer 5

gaussian surface

Question 6

true or false: The electric flux is proportional to the
number of electric field lines penetrating some surface.

Answer 6

true

field lines may make some angle θ with the perpendicular to the surface.
