An electric dipole is put in north-south direction in sphere filled with water. Which statement is correct?

Electric flux is coming towards sphere

Electric flux is coming out of sphere

Electric flux entering into sphere and leaving the sphere are same

Water does not permit electric flux to enter into sphere

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:

In electric dipole, the flux coming out from positive charges is equal to he flux coming in at negative charge i.e., total charge on sphere `=0`. From Gauss law, total flux passing through the sphere `=0`
