Which of the following statement is correct ? If E = 0 , at all points of a closed surface. a. the electirc flux through the surface is zero. b. the total charge enclosed by the surface is zero.

Figure shows a conducting sphere with a cavity. A point charge q_(1) is placed inside cavity, and q_(2) is placed out side the sphere vec(E)_("in") is electric field due to charge induced on surface of cavity. vec(E)_("out") is electric field due to charge induced on outer surface of sphere and vec(E)_("net") is net field at any point. Two closed gaussian surface S_(1) & S_(2) are also drawn in the figure.

A charge of 12 muC is kept inside a closed surface. What is the flux flowing through a portion of the surface, which subtends a solid angle of pi at the point where are charge is situated?
