[QUOTE="collinsmark, post: 6058802, member: 114325"] What answer does the textbook give? By the way, for what it's worth, I agree with your numerical answer. A bit more below though about your method. While I agree with the answer that you obtained, you made this way too complicated. It's true that [itex] \vec E \cdot \vec A = EA \cos \theta. [/itex] But there is another way to express this relationship: [itex] \vec E \cdot \vec A = E_x A_x + E_y A_y + E_z A_z, [/itex] which is far more useful here. You need to know both of these relationships. Sometimes one will be easier, and some other times the other will. You need to know both. [/QUOTE]
