Question

What is the electric flux through a sphere of radius 4m that contains 50μC?
Options
A 5.56×10^6 Nm²/C
Correct Answer
B 2.28×10^6 Nm²/C
C 22.8×10^6 Nm²/C
D 1.42×10^6 Nm²/C
Correct Answer

Option A is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

Φ = Q/ε₀ = 50×10^-6 / 8.85×10^-12 = 5.65×10^6 Nm²/C.

Hint

Use Gauss's law: Φ = Q/ε₀.
