Electric Flux & Gauss's Law

A charge Qμ\muC is placed at the centre of a cube, the flux coming out from each face will be

Show answer and solution

Answer: (a)

  1. Each face gets 16\dfrac{1}{6} of total flux qε0\dfrac{q}{\varepsilon_0}.
  2. q=Q×10−6q = Q \times 10^{-6} C, so ϕface=Q6ε0×10−6\phi_{face} = \dfrac{Q}{6\varepsilon_0} \times 10^{-6}.
  3. So the answer is (a).
