No.there can be electric field on the Gaussian surface even if the charge enclosed by it is zero.However ,net flux will be zero through the surface.

The area between z equals 0 and z equals 2.49 is?

The question does not specify what z is so this answer could be completely wrong. However, if the question is in the context of the standard Gaussian distribution, the answer is 0.493613 (to 6 dp)


How do you calculate ECE of silver if mass equals 0.108 grams and charge equals 1 coulomb?

divide 0.108 gm by 1 coulomb of charge because e.c.e equals mass in gm/charge

An isolated conducting sphere whose radius R equals 1M has a charge 1.1nc the energy density at the surface of sphere?

The energy density at the surface of a charged conductor is the surface charge density squared , divided by 2 x the permittivity of free space. The surface charge density is the charge divided by the area it sits on. So if, e = permittivity = 8.85 x 10^-12 CC/Nmm and D = surface charge density, and U = energy density and R = radius of sphere and q = charge on sphere, then; U = (1/2e) x D^2 where D = q/4piR^2 = 1.1 x 10^-9/(4 x 3.14 x 1) = 8.76 x 10^-11 , where 4piR^2 is the surface area of a sphere. So; D^2 = 76.7 x 10^-22 then ; U = (76.7 x 10^-22)/(17.7 x 10^-12) = 4.33 x 10^-10 Joules/mmm
