QUESTION 6 Consider a cube with edge length L immersed in a uniform electric field E along the x-direction as shown in the figure below. Calculate the electric flux through the closed surface. E L. We need to solve for the electric flux through each face of the cube and take the sum to calculate the net electric flux: Onet = 01+02 + 03+@xy+ Oxz+@yz The flux through surface 1 is: 01=0. The flux through surface 2 is: 0, = P2 The flux through surface 3 is: O3 = The flux through the surface on the xy plane is: Oxy The flux through the surface on the xz plane is: %3D XZ The flux through the surface on the yz plane is: 0vz Taking the algebraic sum, the net electric flux through the cube is: Onet
