A spherical rubber balloon carries a charge, uniformly distributed over the surface. As the balloon is blown up and increases in size, the total electric flux coming out of the surface

  1. A Becomes zero
  2. B Increases
  3. C Decreases
  4. D Remains unchanged
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) Remains unchanged

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Total electric flux through the surface \(=\frac{\mathrm{q}}{\varepsilon_0}\).
As charge remains unchanged when size of balloon increases, electric flux through the surface remains unchanged.
