Example Question #1 : Using Gauss's Law
A charge, , is enclosed by two spherical surfaces of radii and , with . The cross-sectional side view is shown.
Which is the correct relationship between the electric flux passing through the two spherical surfaces around the point charge?
Possible Answers:
Correct answer:
Explanation:
Electric flux is given by either side of the equation of Gauss's Law:
Since the charge is the same for both spherical surfaces, even though these surfaces are of different radii, the amounts of electric flux passing through each surface is the same.
