A charge ‘q’ is placed at the centre of a cube of side l. What is the electric flux passing through each face of the cube?

उत्तर
By using Gauss’s Law.
It is given as
`Phi = oint vecE*dvecs = q/in_0`
Now, the flux passing through all the six surfaces would be
`Phi = 6phi =q/in_0`
And the flux passing through each surface would be
`phi = q/(6in_0)`
