Question

Which statement is true for Gauss law -

Options

• All the charges whether inside or outside the Gaussian surface contribute to the electric flux.

• Electric flux depends upon the geometry of the gaussian surface.

• Gauss theorem can be applied to the non-uniform electric field.

• The electric field over the gaussian surface remains continuous and uniform at every point.

Answer 1

The electric field over the gaussian surface remains continuous and uniform at every point.

Explanation:

All other statements except (iv) are incorrect.

Every point on the Gaussian surface has a continuous and homogeneous electric field.
