Chapter 22: Problem 1
A flat sheet of paper of area 0.250 m\(^2\) is oriented so that the normal to the sheet is at an angle of 60\(^\circ\) to a uniform electric field of magnitude 14 N/C. (a) Find the magnitude of the electric flux through the sheet. (b) Does the answer to part (a) depend on the shape of the sheet? Why or why not? (c) For what angle \(\phi\) between the normal to the sheet and the electric field is the magnitude of the flux through the sheet (i) largest and (ii) smallest? Explain your answers.
