If charge is placed in the centre of cube,

ux through surface of cube is 6 , where is ux through each face.

by Gauss's law,
q
6 =
0

q
=> =
60

Hence B is the correct answer.

This is a Verified Answer

Verified answers contain reliable, trustworthy information vouched for by a hand-picked team of experts. Brainly has millions
of high quality answers, all of them carefully moderated by our most trusted community members, but verified answers are the
finest of the finest.

Let the cube be ABCDEFGH with ABCD being one face and EFGH being the symmetricallyopposite face. Let us find the electric flux
thru face EFGH.

Due to the charges at E,F, G or H the flux thru the face EFGH = 0.
Due to charge q at A, the flux that flows through inside the cube is 1/8th of total flux due to q at A. So that is = 1/8 * (q/) using the
Gauss law. This flux goes into three faces that dont contain A ie., BCFG, EFGH, DHCF. So the flux due to charge q at A passing thru
face EFGH = 1/24 * (q/).

Total flux due to charges at A, B, C and D passing thru face EFGH

= 1/6 * (q/)

The flux of the electric field through the closed surface is remain unchanged.
Because the no. of electric field lines enter in the closed path = no. of electric field lines
existsin the closed path.

Due to charge distribution, intersection by the closed surface of conducting sphere contain-

Solution: Answer: (A) 3( / 0)
[(charge) / (length)] = hence = length (1)
