Sheet 3

This document contains 10 problems related to electric flux and electric field calculations. The problems involve calculating flux through surfaces, electric field vectors, volume charge densities, and using Gauss's law and the divergence theorem to relate flux and enclosed charge. Specific problems involve point charges, line charges, and uniform surface charge distributions on spheres and planes. Solutions require using the definitions of electric flux, field, and Gauss's law in rectangular, cylindrical, and spherical coordinate systems.
