Consider the charge configuration for a sphere given below. Electric flux linked with the sphere will be
A
B
C
D
zero
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
D
As we know from Gauss' theorem electric flux due to any charge, or a system of charges outside a Gaussian surface over its surface is zero.
Therefore, electric flux is only due to q 1 and
