Under an electric field, magnitude and direction of electric intensity is different in every point.If the electric intensity can be defined through a closed line (direction of electric intensity will be along the tangent of any point of that line)this is called electric lines of force.

Electric lines of forces passing through an closed electric surface perpendicularly, is called electric flux.

Electric flux linked with a surface is defined as the total number of electric field lines passing through that surface. SI unit of electric flux is N m^2 C^-1.

How do magnets magnetic fields electric currents and metals connect?

Well when an electric current flows through a conductor a magnetic field is produced. And a changing magnetic flux through a conductor produces a current in the conductor.


Can a displacement current be measured with an ammeter expain?

Displacement current can not be measured by ammeter because it is the current which produce between the plate (space)due to change of electric flux and it is directly proportional to the rate of change of electric flux.

Does electromagnetic flux flow through wood?

Depends on frequency"Electromagnetic flux" is just the amount of energy passing through a surface in the form of electromagnetic waves.The answer to your question depends on the frequency of the electromagnetic waves. Long, slow waves like radio waves can pass through wood, and short, fast waves like X-rays and gamma rays can also. Intermediate waves like visible light cannot (in other words, you can't see through wood).Good answer. If you should be talking about whether wood will decrease the flux produced by a magnet, the answer is no. The flux flows through wood just fine, but it does not interact with the wood. If the flux was passing through a conductor, then it could induce a current, thereby losing energy of it's own.Please be more preciseDo you mean the electric flux, or the magnetic flux, or the flow of electromagnetic waves?


What is flux field?

Flux can mean multiple things such as: 1. A flowing or flow 2. Continuous change or movement 3. The flowing in of the tide 4. A sticky acidic compound to help solder adhere

What is maximum and minimum electric flux?

As we know that electric flux is the total number of electric lines of forces passing through a surface. Maximum Flux: Electric flux through a surface will be maximum when electric lines of forces are perpendicular to the surface. Minimum flux: Electric flux through a surface will be minimum or zero when electric lines of forces are parallel to the surface.

What are the two main types of flux?

Types of flux - Electric and Magnetic Flux. Electric field flux through a closed surface is equal to the change enclosed in the surface, or the rate of change of magnetic flux is equal to the induced voltage around the surface.
