Answer: The question is incomplete as some other details are missing. Here is the complete question ; A helium atom falls in a vacuum . The mass of a helium atom is 6.64 x 10-27 kg . (a) From what height must it fall so that its translational kinetic energy at the bottom equals the average translational kinetic energy of a helium molecule at 300 K? (b) At what temperature would the average speed of helium atoms equal the escape speed from the Earth, 1.12 x 104 m/s.
a) Height = 95.336Km
b) Temperature = 20118.87K

Answer:
a. 7.046 Nm²/C
b. 2.348 Nm²/C
Explanation:
Data given:
Base of equilateral triangle = 25.0 cm = 0.25 m
Strength of electric field = 260 N/C
In order to find the electric flux we first have to find out the area of triangle.
Area of triangle =
=
= 0.0271 m³
Lets find electric flux,
Electric Flux = E. A
= 260×0.0271
= 7.046 Nm²/C
Now we can find the electric flux through each of the three sides.
Electric flux through three sides =
= 2.348 N m²/C
