A point charge of 2.0 µC is at the centre of a cubic Gaussian surface 9.0 cm on edge. What is the net electric flux through the surface



Question 1.19: A point charge of 2.0 µC is at the centre of a cubic Gaussian surface 9.0 cm on edge. What is the net electric flux through the surface?

Answer:
Method - 1 

Net electric flux (ΦNet) through the cubic surface is given by,


Where,

0 = Permittivity of free space = 8.854 × 10−12 N−1C2 m−2

q = Net charge contained inside the cube = 2.0 µC = 2 × 10−6 C


= 2.26 × 105 N m2 C−1

The net electric flux through the surface is 2.26 ×105 N m2C−1.
Method - 2
