WRONG PROBLEM OF HC VERMA

·         WRONG PROBLEM OF H C VERMA

H C Verma  (Part 2)  Gauss’s Law   Page # 141        Problem # 4

Q. The electric field in a region is given by E = (E_ox/L) i . Find the charge contained inside a cubical volume bounded by the surfaces x = 0, x = a, y = 0, y = a, z = 0, z = a. Take E_o = 5 ×10³ N/C, L = 2 cm and a = 1 cm.  

SOLUTION:

NOTE: This question has conceptual mistake.

•  As electric field is given by the eqn. E = (E_ox/L) i , it means electric field is towards positive x-axis right of y-z axis and it is towards –ve x axis  left of y-z axis. 
• It means field lines are parallel.
• Parallel field lines mean that field is uniform.
• But as field depends on value of x, it can’t be uniform.
• Hence, there is a contradiction.

• Figure explanation.
• Plane x = 0 corresponds to y-z plane , shown by left face in the figure.
• Plane x = a corresponds to y-z plane , shown by right face in the figure.
• Plane y = 0 corresponds to x-z plane , shown by bottom face in the figure.
• Plane y = a corresponds to x-z plane , shown by top face in the figure.
• Plane z = 0 corresponds to x-y plane , shown by back face in the figure.
• Plane z = a corresponds to x-y plane , shown by front face in the figure.

HCV VERMA FULLY EXPLAINED

My aim to create solutions of hcverma from all resources. We all know that hcverma is a must must book for all iit jee aspirants. And there are different solutions available freely, but none of the solution is good enough.

 All provide solutions accurately but in case of good questions solutions are not upto the mark. So this is a platform where you get solutions from all the available resources and try to put all types of solutions. You can yourself decide which solutions you want.

 Be a follower of this blog and get quality solution of hcverma. No need to do lot of surfing and no need to try to locate best solutions. Be a part of of his blog and also comment which solution you want at the earliest. 

Which solution you want to eemove from the blog, try to locate errors in solution, also comment for alternate solutions, you can also comment and post your own solutions. 

Happy solving hcverma. Thanks very much - from Rajeev Sharma.
