1 Chapte Univesity Physics (PHY 6) Lectue lectostatics lectic field (cont.) Conductos in electostatic euilibium The oscilloscope lectic flux and Gauss s law /6/5

2 Discuss a techniue intoduced by Kal F. Gauss ( ) to calculate electic fields. euies symmetic chage distibutions. Techniue based on the notion of electical flux. Flux Numbe of objects passing though a suface /6/5

3 To intoduce the notion of flux, conside a situation whee the electic field is unifom in magnitude and diection. Conside also that the field lines coss a suface of aea A which is pependicula to the field. The numbe of field lines pe unit of aea is constant. The flux, F, is defined as the poduct of the field magnitude by the aea cossed by the field lines. FA Aea=A /6/5

4 Units: Nm /C in SI units. Find the electic flux though the aea A = m, which is pependicula to an electic field = N/C FA Answe: F = 44 Nm/C. /6/5 4

5 If the suface is not pependicula to the field, the expession of the field becomes: FAcos Whee is the angle between the field and a nomal to the suface. N /6/5 5

6 emak: When an aea is constucted such that a closed suface is fomed, we shall adopt the convention that the flux lines passing into the inteio of the volume ae negative and those passing out of the inteio of the volume ae positive. /6/5 6

7 Question: Calculate the flux of a constant field (along x) though a cube of side L. y x z /6/5 7

8 Question: Calculate the flux of a constant field (along x) though a cube of side L. easoning: Dealing with a composite, closed suface. Sum of the fluxes though all sufaces. Flux of field going in is negative Flux of field going out is positive. is paallel to all sufaces except sufaces labeled and. So only those suface contibute to the flux. y x z /6/5 8

9 Question: Calculate the flux of a constant field (along x) though a cube of side L. easoning: Dealing with a composite, closed suface. Sum of the fluxes though all sufaces. Flux of field going in is negative Flux of field going out is positive. is paallel to all sufaces except sufaces labeled and. So only those suface contibute to the flux. Solution: F A F A cos L cos L Fnet L L y x z /6/5 9

10 The net flux passing though a closed suface suounding a chage Q is popotional to the magnitude of Q: F Acos Q net In fee space, the constant of popotionality is /e o whee e o is called the pemittivity of of fee space. eo 9 4 k Nm / C e /6/5

11 The net flux passing though any closed suface is eual to the net chage inside the suface divided by e o. F Acos net Q e o /6/5

12 The field lines emitted by a chage ae popotional to the size of the chage. Theefoe, the electic field must be popotional to the size of the chage In ode to count the field lines, we must enclose the chages in some geometical suface (one that we choose) /6/5

15 Shapes Sphee Cylinde Pillbox /6/5 5

16 Sphee When to use: aound spheical objects (duh!) and point chages Hey! What if an object is not one of these objects? Closed suface integal yields: da (4 is the adius of the geometical object that you ae ceating ) /6/5 6

18 When to use: aound cylindical objects and line chages Closed suface integal yields: da ( L) L is the adius of the geometical object that you ae ceating and L is the length of the cylinde 8

19 What if you had an infinitely long line of chage with a linea chage density, l? (L) da (L) enclosed l e ll ll e o l e ˆ 9

20 When to use: aound flat sufaces and sheets of chage Closed suface integal yields: da A A is the aea of the pillbox

21 If excess chage is placed on an isolated conducto, the chage esides on the suface. Why? If thee is an -field inside the conducto then it would exet foces on the fee electons which would then be in motion. This is NOT electostatic. Theefoe, if thee is no -field inside, then, by Gauss s Law, the chage enclosed inside must be zeo If the chages ae not on the outside, you ae only left with the suface A caveat to this is that -field lines must be pependicula to the suface else fee chages would move.

22 A Let n o A A So A A A A da enclosed ˆ ) )( ( e e e A

23 Let A A So A da enclosed A e e A A o A nˆ e So a conducto has x the electic field stength as the infinite sheet of chage

24 ecall the Divegence of a field of vectos Div( v) v Div=+lage Div= How much the vecto diveges aound a given point 4

25 v d A place of high divegence is like a faucet v Bounded suface of some egion da Suspiciously like LHS of Gauss s Law Sum of the faucets in a volume = Sum of the wate going thu the suface 5

26 so da e enclosed e d enclosed e and enclosed d So how the -field speads out fom a point depends on the amount of chage density at that point

27 Poblem A chage, +, is suounded by a thin, spheical shell of adius, a, which has a chage density of on its suface. This shell is, in tun, suounded by anothe thin shell of adius, b, which has a suface chage of +. Find the electic fields in egion : <a egion : a<= <=b egion : > b b + a - + /6/5 7

28 I choose spheical! So da (4 ) 8

32 An electic filed given by =4i-(y +)j pieces the Gaussian cube shown below. ( is in newtons/coulomb and y is metes). What net chage is enclosed by the Gaussian cube? y x z X=. m X=. m
