Wednesday, Jan. 31, PHYS , Spring 2007 Dr. Andrew Brandt Generalization of the Electric Flux We define the direction of the area vector as pointing outward from the enclosed volume. –For the line leaving the volume,  /2, so cos  >0. The flux is positive. –For the line coming into the volume,  /2, so cos  <0. The flux is negative. –If  E >0, there is a net flux out of the volume. –If  E <0, there is flux into the volume. In the above figures, each field that enters the volume also leaves the volume, so The flux is non-zero only if one or more lines start or end inside the surface.

Wednesday, Jan. 31, PHYS , Spring 2007 Dr. Andrew Brandt Generalization of the Electric Flux The field line starts or ends only on a charge. Sign of the net flux on the surface A1?A1? –Net outward flux (positive flux) How about A2?A2? –Net inward flux (negative flux) What is the flux in the bottom figure? –There should be a net inward flux (negative flux) since the total charge inside the volume is negative. The flux that crosses an enclosed surface is proportional to the total charge inside the surface.  This is the crux of Gauss’ law.

Wednesday, Jan. 31, PHYS , Spring 2007 Dr. Andrew Brandt Gauss’ Law The precise relation between flux and the enclosed charge is given by Gauss’ Law 0 0 is the permittivity of free space in the Coulomb’s law A few important points on Gauss’ Law –Freedom to choose!! The integral is performed over the value of E on a closed surface of our choice in any given situation. –Test of existence of electrical charge!! The charge Q encl is the net charge enclosed by the arbitrary closed surface of our choice. –Universality of the law! It does NOT matter where or how much charge is distributed inside the surface. –The charge outside the surface does not contribute to Q encl. Why? The charge outside the surface might impact field lines but not the total number of lines entering or leaving the surface

Wednesday, Jan. 31, PHYS , Spring 2007 Dr. Andrew Brandt Gauss’ Law Let’s consider the case in the above figure. What are the results of the closed integral of the gaussian surfaces A1 A1 and A2?A2? –For A1A1 A2A2 q q’

Wednesday, Jan. 31, PHYS , Spring 2007 Dr. Andrew Brandt Coulomb’s Law from Gauss’ Law Let’s consider a charge Q enclosed inside our imaginary Gaussian surface of sphere of radius r. –Since we can choose any surface enclosing the charge, we choose the simplest possible one! The surface is symmetric about the charge. –What does this tell us about the field E? Must have the same magnitude at any point on the surface Points radially outward / inward parallel to the surface vector dA.dA. The Gaussian integral can be written as Solve for E Electric Field of Coulomb’s Law

Wednesday, Jan. 31, PHYS , Spring 2007 Dr. Andrew Brandt Gauss’ Law from Coulomb’s Law Let’s consider a single static point charge Q surrounded by an imaginary spherical surface. Coulomb’s law tells us that the electric field at a spherical surface is Performing a closed integral over the surface, we obtain Gauss’ Law

Wednesday, Jan. 31, PHYS , Spring 2007 Dr. Andrew Brandt Gauss’ Law from Coulomb’s Law Irregular Surface Let’s consider the same single static point charge Q surrounded by a symmetric spherical surface A1 A1 and a randomly shaped surface A2.A2. What is the difference in the number of field lines passing through the two surface due to the charge Q? –None. What does this mean? The total number of field lines passing through the surface is the same no matter what the shape of the enclosed surface is. –So we can write: –What does this mean? The flux due to the given enclosed charge is the same no matter what the shape of the surface enclosing it is.  Gauss’ law,, is valid for any surface surrounding a single point charge Q.

Wednesday, Jan. 31, PHYS , Spring 2007 Dr. Andrew Brandt Gauss’ Law w/ more than one charge Let’s consider several charges inside a closed surface. For each charge, Q i, inside the chosen closed surface, Since electric fields can be added vectorially, following the superposition principle, the total field E is equal to the sum of the fields due to each charge. So The value of the flux depends on the charge enclosed in the surface!!  Gauss’ law. What is ? The electric field produced by Qi Qi alone! What is Q encl ? The total enclosed charge!

Wednesday, Jan. 31, PHYS , Spring 2007 Dr. Andrew Brandt So what is Gauss’ Law good for? Derivation of Gauss’ law from Coulomb’s law is only valid for static electric charge. Electric field can also be produced by changing magnetic fields. –Coulomb’s law cannot describe this field while Gauss’ law is still valid Gauss’ law is more general than Coulomb’s law. –Can be used to obtain electric field, forces or obtain charges Gauss’ Law: Any d dd differences between the input and output flux of the electric field over any enclosed surface is due to the charge within that surface!!!

Wednesday, Jan. 31, PHYS , Spring 2007 Dr. Andrew Brandt Example 22 – 2 Flux from Gauss’ Law : Consider the two Gaussian surfaces, A1 A1 and A 2, shown in the figure. The only charge present is the charge +Q at the center of surface A 1. What is the net flux through each surface A1 A1 and A2?A2? The surface A1 A1 encloses the charge +Q, so from Gauss’ law we obtain the total net flux Foe A2 A2 the charge, +Q, is outside the surface, so the total net flux is 0.

Wednesday, Jan. 31, PHYS , Spring 2007 Dr. Andrew Brandt Example 22 – 5 Long uniform line of charge : A very long straight wire possesses a uniform positive charge per unit length,. Calculate the electric field at points near but outside the wire, far from the ends. Which direction do you think the field due to the charge on the wire is? –Radially outward from the wire, the direction of radial vector r. Due to cylindrical symmetry, the field is the same on the gaussian surface of a cylinder surrounding the wire. –The end surfaces do not contribute to the flux at all. Why? Because the field vector E is perpendicular to the surface vector dA.dA. From Gauss’ law Solving for E

Wednesday, Jan. 31, PHYS , Spring 2007 Dr. Andrew Brandt Electric Potential Energy Concept of energy is very useful solving mechanical problems Conservation of energy makes solving complex problems easier. When can the potential energy be defined? –Only for a conservative force. –The work done by a conservative force is independent of the path. What does it only depend on?? The difference between the initial and final positions –Can you give me an example of a conservative force? Gravitational force Is the electrostatic force between two charges a conservative force? –Yes. Why? –The dependence of the force on distance is identical to that of the gravitational force. The only thing matters is the direct linear distance between the object not the path.

Wednesday, Jan. 31, PHYS , Spring 2007 Dr. Andrew Brandt Electric Potential Energy What is the definition of change in electric potential energy U b –U a ? – The potential gained by the charge as it moves from point a to point b.b. – The negative work done on the charge by the electric force to move it from a to b.b. Let’s consider an electric field between two parallel plates w/ equal but opposite charges –The field between the plates is uniform since the gap is small and the plates are infinitely long… What happens when we place a small charge, +q, on a point at the positive plate and let go? –The electric force will accelerate the charge toward negative plate. –What kind of energy does the charged particle gain? Kinetic energy

Wednesday, Jan. 31, PHYS , Spring 2007 Dr. Andrew Brandt Electric Potential Energy What does this mean in terms of energies? –The electric force is a conservative force. –Thus, the mechanical energy (K+U) is conserved under this force. –The charged object has only the electric potential energy at the positive plate. –The electric potential energy decreases and –Turns into kinetic energy as the electric force works on the charged object and the charged object gains speed. Point of greatest potential energy for –Positively charged object –Negatively charged object PE= KE= ME= U0 0K U U+K K

Wednesday, Jan. 31, PHYS , Spring 2007 Dr. Andrew Brandt Electric Potential How is the electric field defined? –Electric force per unit charge: F/q We can define electric potential (potential) as –The electric potential energy per unit charge –This is like the voltage of a battery… Electric potential is written with a symbol V –If a positive test charge q has potential energy Ua Ua at a point a, the electric potential of the charge at that point is
