Calculate the total electric flux through the paraboloidal surface due to a uniform electric field of magnitude `E_0` in the direction shown in figure.

A

0

B

`-E_0pir^2`

C

`E_0pir`

D

`E_0pir^2`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Effective area = A `= pir^2`
`:. phi = E_0A = E_0pir^2`.
