Question

Transcribed Image Text:A nonuniform electric field is directed along the x-axis at all points in space. This magnitude
of the field varies with x, but not with respect to y or z. The axis of a cylindrical surface, 0.80
m long and 0.20 m in diameter, is aligned parallel to the x-axis, as shown in the figure. The
electric fields E1 and E2, at the ends of the cylindrical surface, have magnitudes of 9000 N/C
and 5000 N/C respectively, and are directed as shown. (s0 = 8.85 × 10-12 C2/N•m2) The
charge enclosed by the cylindrical surface is closest to
