A gaussian surface encloses three point charges \( q_1 = -14 \text{ nC}, q_2 = 78.85 \text{ nC} \) and \( q_3 = -56 \text{ nC} \). The electric flux for the gaussian surface due to these charges is

  1. A \( 1000 \text{ N m}^2 \text{ C}^{-1} \)
  2. B \( 7885 \text{ N m}^2 \text{ C}^{-1} \)
  3. C \(885 \text{ N m}^2 \text{ C}^{-1} \)
  4. D \(1400 \text{ N m}^2 \text{ C}^{-1} \)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \( 1000 \text{ N m}^2 \text{ C}^{-1} \)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( Q_{enc} = q_1 + q_2 + q_3 = (-14 + 78.85 - 56) \times 10^{-9} \text{ C} = 8.85 \times 10^{-9} \text{ C} \)…
