Answer:

$44,000 Nm^2/C$

Explanation:

The electric flux through a certain surface is given by (for a uniform field):

$\Phi = EA cos \theta$

where:

E is the magnitude of the electric field

A is the area of the surface

$\theta$ is the angle between the direction of the field and of the normal to the surface

In this problem, we have:

$E=1.1\cdot 10^4 N/C$ is the electric field

L = 2.0 m is the side of the sheet, so the area is

$A=L^2=(2.0)^2=4.0 m^2$

$\theta=0^{\circ}$ , since the electric field is perpendicular to the surface

Therefore, the electric flux is

$\Phi =(1.1\cdot 10^4)(4.0)(cos 0^{\circ})=44,000 Nm^2/C$

What is the magnitude of the magnetic field at a point midway between them if the top one carries a current of 19.5 A and the bo

Phantasy [73]

Answer:

The magnetic field will be $\large{\dfrac{1.4 \times 10^{-4}}{d}} T$ , '2d' being the distance the wires.

Explanation:

From Biot-Savart's law, the magnetic field ( $\large{\overrightarrow{B}}$ ) at a distance ' $r$ ' due to a current carrying conductor carrying current ' $I$ ' is given by

$\large{\overrightarrow{B} = \dfrac{\mu_{0}I}{4 \pi}} \int \dfrac{\overrightarrow{dl} \times \hat{r}}{r^{2}}}$

where ' $\overrightarrow{dl}$ ' is an elemental length along the direction of the current flow through the conductor.

Using this law, the magnetic field due to straight current carrying conductor having current ' $I$ ', at a distance ' $d$ ' is given by

$\large{\overrightarrow{B}} = \dfrac{\mu_{0}I}{2 \pi d}$

According to the figure if ' $I_{t}$ ' be the current carried by the top wire, ' $I_{b}$ ' be the current carried by the bottom wire and ' $2d$ ' be the distance between them, then the direction of the magnetic field at 'P', which is midway between them, will be perpendicular towards the plane of the screen, shown by the $\bigotimes$ symbol and that due to the bottom wire at 'P' will be perpendicular away from the plane of the screen, shown by $\bigodot$ symbol.

Given $\large{I_{t} = 19.5 A}$ and $\large{I_{B} = 12.5 A}$

Therefore, the magnetic field ( $\large{B_{t}}$ ) at 'P' due to the top wire

$B_{t} = \dfrac{\mu_{0}I_{t}}{2 \pi d}$

and the magnetic field ( $\large{B_{b}}$ ) at 'P' due to the bottom wire

$B_{b} = \dfrac{\mu_{0}I_{b}}{2 \pi d}$

Therefore taking the value of $\mu_{0} = 4\pi \times 10^{-7}$ the net magnetic field ( $\large{B_{M}}$ ) at the midway between the wires will be

$\large{B_{M} = \dfrac{4 \pi \times 10^{-7}}{2 \pi d} (I_{t} - I_{b}) = \dfrac{2 \times 10^{-7}}{d} = \dfrac{41.4 \times 10 ^{-4}}{d}} T$
