Week 2 Charge Distribution and Gauss' Law Flashcards
1
Q
what is the dE component
A
dE = 1/4πε dq/(x^2+r^2)
2
Q
what is the charge distribution angle equation
A
cosα = x/d = x/SQRT(x^2+r^2)
3
Q
what is the integral form of Gauss’s Law
A
φ = E∫ds
4
Q
what is the simplistic Gauss’ Law
A
φ = q/ε
5
Q
what does Gauss’ Law allow us to do
A
Find the total net charge in something by examining the flux
6
Q
what are the 3 steps for Gauss Law
A
1 Define a closed surface in space
2 Find the total flux
3 answer will depend on the corresponding flux
