A charge q is placed at the center of the cubical vessel (with one face open) as shown in figure. The flux of the electric field through the surface of the vessel is
A
zero
B
q/ε 0
C
D
5q/6ε 0
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
D
Total flux through closed cubical vessel = 
.
& Flux through one face = 
So, total flux passing through given cubical vessel is =
