Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the total electric flux through a closed surface surrounding a charge of -3Q?
  • Step 1: Identify the charge enclosed by the closed surface. In this case, the charge is -3Q.
  • Step 2: Recall the formula for electric flux through a closed surface, which is Φ = Q_enc / ε₀.
  • Step 3: Substitute the value of the enclosed charge (Q_enc = -3Q) into the formula: Φ = -3Q / ε₀.
  • Step 4: The total electric flux through the closed surface is therefore -3Q / ε₀.
