A charge is surrounded by a closed surface consisting of an inverted cone of height and base radius , and a hemisphere of radius as shown in the figure. The electric flux through the conical surface is (in units). The value of is _________.

- A 1
- B 2
- C 3
- D 4
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) 3
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
According to the Gauss law, the total flux linked with a closed surface is times the charge enclosed by the closed surface. As we can see from the diagram, the given shape encloses the charge , therefore from Gauss law, we can write total flux .

When liquid medicine of density \(\rho\) is to be put in the eye, it is done with the help of a dropper. As the bulb on the top of the dropper is pressed, a drop forms at the opening of the dropper. We wish to estimate the size of the drop.
We first assume that the drop formed at the opening is spherical because that requires a minimum increase in its surface energy. To determine the size, we calculate the net vertical force due to the surface tension \(T\) when the radius of the drop is \(R\). When this force becomes smaller than the weight of the drop, the drop gets detached from the dropper.Question :
