A charged wire of linear charge density k is placed along axis of cylinder of length a. Electric flux associated to cylinder is
A
B
C
D
None of these
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
A
The linear charge density k gives the charge per unit length, so total charge Q on the wire is 
, where a is the length of the cylinder.
Therefore, the electric flux through the cylinder surface is
