Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) (B) and (D) only

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

(A) Electric field due to a single charge is spherically symmetric. (B) Gauss's theorem holds good for any closed surface. This statement is true. (C) Electric field due to an electric dipole is axially symmetric, not spherically symmetric. (D) The field due to a uniformly…
