A
reminder
of
geometry

Electric
Flux
Flux
is
the
amount
of
something
that
ows
through
a
given
area.
Electric
ux,
E,
measures
the
amount
of
electric
eld
lines
that
passes
through
a
given
area.
The
electric
ux
depends
on:
How
big
the
area
is.
How
strong
the
electric
eld
is.
The
angle
between
the
area
and
the
electric
eld.

Gauss
Law
Gauss
Law
states
that
the
electric
ux
through
any
closed
surface
is
equal
to
the
net
charge,
Qinside,
inside
the
surface
divided
by
the
constant
o.

Gauss
Law
What
if
there
were
no
charges
present
inside
the
closed
Gaussian
surface,
what
would
the
electric
ux
be?
"
"
The
amount
of
eld
lines
that
enter
the
surface
equal
the
amount
of
eld
lines
that
leave
the
surface.
This
leads
to
a
net
electric
ux
of
zero.
Gauss Law
Example
In
the
gure
below,
a
proton
is
a
distance
d/2
directly
above
the
center
of
a
square
of
side
d.
Assume
d
=
2.0cm.
What
is
the
magnitude
of
electric
ux
through
the
square?
"
"
"
Answer
Dene
a
coordinate
system.
Choose
the
proton
as
r
=
0.
Any
outward
distance
would
be
posi4ve.
