Question

A charge +Q is located in space at point $(x=1m,y=10m,z=5m)$. What is the total electric flux that passes through the $y-z$ plane?

• A. $\frac{Q}{{\epsilon }_0}$
• B. $\frac{Q}{3{\epsilon }_0}$
• C. $\frac{Q}{6{\epsilon }_0}$
• D. $\frac{Q}{2{\epsilon }_0}$

Answer 1

The correct option is A $\frac{Q}{{\epsilon }_0}$

A charge $+Q$

Point ($x=1m$, $y=10m$, $z=5m$)

Using the Gaussian theorem,

total electric flux $=\varphi =\frac{Q}{{ϵ}_0}$
