If a charge \(q\) is placed at the centre of a closed hemispherical non-conducting surface, the total flux passing through the flat surface would be

Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) \(\frac{q}{2 \varepsilon_{0}}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Total flux through complete spherical surface is \(\frac{ q }{\varepsilon_{0}}\)
So the flux through curved surface will be \(\frac{q}{2 \varepsilon_{0}}\). The flux through flat surface will be zero.
Remark : Electric flux through flat surface is zero but no option is given, option is available for electric flux passing through curved surface.
