JEE Main 2017Electrostatics Question with Solution

JEE Main 2017 (09 Apr Online)

Question

Four closed surfaces and corresponding charge distributions are shown below.



Let the respective electric fluxes through the surfaces be ϕ1, ϕ2, ϕ3 and ϕ4. Then:

Choose an option

Show full solutionCorrect option: D
Correct answer
Dϕ1= ϕ2= ϕ3= ϕ4

Step-by-step explanation

By Gauss law,

 ϕ= qenclosedϵo

qenclosed is same in all cases.

⇒ ϕ will be same in all four cases
