A charge \(q\) is placed at one corner of a cube. The electric flux through any of the three faces adjacent to the charge is zero. The flux through any one of the other three faces is

  1. A \(q / 3 \varepsilon_{0}\)
  2. B \(q / 6 \varepsilon_{0}\)
  3. C \(q / 12 \varepsilon_{0}\)
  4. D \(q / 24 \varepsilon_{0}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(q / 24 \varepsilon_{0}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Consider the diagram In above the flux coverage of three face is shown in figure. Which is like a quadrant in any plane. So, flux will be \[ \phi=\frac{1}{4} \times \frac{q}{6 \varepsilon_{0}}=\frac{q}{24 \varepsilon_{0}} \]
