Choose the correct alternative from the following: |
Gauss law is true for any open surface. Gauss law includes the sum of all charges enclosed by the surface for calculation of electric flux through the surface. Gauss law can be used to calculate the magnetic field due to steady current. Gauss law is not based on the inverse square dependence on distance contained in the Coloumb's law. |
Gauss law includes the sum of all charges enclosed by the surface for calculation of electric flux through the surface. |
The correct answer is Option (2) → Gauss law includes the sum of all charges enclosed by the surface for calculation of electric flux through the surface. Gauss's law state that, Electric flux, $\phi_E=\frac{q_{enclosed}}{ε_0}$ |
