What is Gauss' law

Members do not see this ad.

Going over the checklist for my MCAT tomorrow and saw this. Never seen it in any book (TPR or TBR). I tried googling it but it seems pretty complicated.

Anyone want to summarize for me? 😀

Electric field * area around the charge that is perpendicular to the E field = charge enclosed / Eo constant

the area around the charge is known as the gaussian surface

E*A=Qenc/Eo

These types of more "exotic" rules will not be in discretes.

You will see them in passages with accompanying background info. But it's still good to know about them.

yeah dont its just there to help w/ the Faraday-Lenz Law
