An infinitely long uniform line charge distribution of charge per unit length 
lies parallel to the y-axis in the y-z plane at 
(see figure). If the magnitude of the flux of the electric field through the rectangular surface ABCD lying in the x-y plane with its center at the origin is 
( 
= permittivity of free space), then the value of n is
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
6
(6)From the figure 
= 60°
So No. of rectangular surfaces used to form a
So, 
Hence ‘ n ’ = 6
