What is the electric flux for Gaussian surface A that encloses the charged particles in free space? [Given: q1=-14 nC,q2=78.85 nC,q3=-56 nC

  1. A 103 N m2 C-1
  2. B 103 C N-1 m-2
  3. C 632×103 N m2 C-1
  4. D 632×103 C N-1 m-2
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) 103 N m2 C-1

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Using Gauss theorem of electrostatics, the electric flux is ϕ=qε0 Net charge enclosed by the gaussian surface A is, q=q1+q2+q3 ⇒q=8.85 nC Electric flux, ϕ=8.85×10-9 C8.85×10-12 C2 N-1 m-2=103 N m2 C-1
