Yes, now I see where I went wrong with the problem. I have to take the non-constant part of Ey, 3.74y and solve for (c) in the same way that I solved part a.

Homework Statement A Gaussian surface in the shape of a cube has edge length 1.14 m. What are (a) the net flux through the surface and (b) the net charge (in C) enclosed by the surface if the electric field in the region is in the positive y direction and has a magnitude that is given by...

I checked the math again, and it turns out that the correct result was just -8, instead of -8e. Thank you for your reply, Issac.

Homework Statement In Millikan's experiment, an oil drop of radius 1.73 μm and density 0.865 g/cm3 is suspended in chamber C when a downward electric field of 1.44 × 105 N/C is applied. Find the charge on the drop, in terms of e. (Tolerance of solution is +/- 2%) Known: radius, r = 1.73...
