Question
A closed surface in vacuum encloses charges –q and +3q. The total electric flux emerging out of the surface is :
Options
Zero
`(2q)/∈_0`

`(4q)/∈_0`
Solution
`(2q)/∈_0`
`phi = q_(enc)/∈_0 = (+3q - q)/∈_0 = (2q)/∈_0`

A point charge causes an electric flux of −1.0 × 103 Nm2/C to pass through a spherical Gaussian surface of 10.0 cm radius centred on the charge.
- If the radius of the Gaussian surface were doubled, how much flux would pass through the surface?
- What is the value of the point charge?
If the point charge is now moved to a distance 'd' from the centre of the square and the side of the square is doubled, explain how the electric flux will be affected.
