Consider the charge configuration and a ...

Consider the charge configuration and a spherical Gaussian surface as shown in the figure. When calculating the flux of the electric field over the spherical surface, the electric field will be due to.

A

`q_2`

B

only the positive charges

C

all the charges

D

`+q_1` and `-q_1`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
At any point over the spherical Gaussian surface, net electric field is the vector sum of electric fields due to `=q_1, q_1` and `q_2`
