The Xy Plane Is "Painted" with a Uniform Surface Charge

question 22

Multiple Choice

The xy plane is "painted" with a uniform surface charge density which is equal to 40 nC/m². Consider a spherical surface with a 4.0-cm radius that has a point in the xy plane as its center. What is the electric flux through that part of the spherical surface for which z > 0?

• A) 14 N ⋅ m²/C
• B) 11 N ⋅ m²/C
• C) 17 N ⋅ m²/C
• D) 20 N ⋅ m²/C
• E) 23 N ⋅ m²/C

Definitions:

Conditioned Stimulus

Within classical conditioning, an initially neutral stimulus becomes linked with an unconditioned stimulus and ultimately elicits a conditioned response.

Neutral Stimulus

In conditioning, a stimulus that initially elicits no specific response other than focusing attention, which can eventually elicit a conditioned response when paired with an unconditioned stimulus.

Unconditioned Response

A natural, unlearned reaction to an unconditioned stimulus, part of classical conditioning theory.

Unconditional Reinforcement

A form of reinforcement in operant conditioning that is given consistently every time a desired response is made.
