Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(2: 5\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Flux through \(C_1, \phi_1=\frac{q_{\text {in }}}{\varepsilon_0}=\frac{2 Q}{\varepsilon_0}\)
Flux through \(C_2, \phi_2=\frac{q_{\text {in }}}{\varepsilon_0}=\frac{2 Q+3 Q}{\varepsilon_0}=\frac{5 Q}{\varepsilon_0}\)
\(\frac{C_1}{C_2}=\frac{\phi_1}{\phi_2}=\frac{2 Q / \varepsilon_0}{5 Q / \varepsilon_0}=\frac{2}{5}\)
