A physics teacher explains Gauss's theorem in electrostatics and Gauss's theorem in magnetism to his students in a class. He tells them that total normal electric flux over a closed surface in vacuum is phi_e=(Q)/(in_0) , where Q is algebraic sum of charges inside the surface. Further, total normal magnetic flux over a closed surface in vacuum is always zero. The teacher emphasises that this is because in magnetism, poles always exist in unlike pairs of equal strengh, i.e., isolated magnetic poles called monopoles do not exist. Read the above passage and answer the following questions: (i) What are the implications of Gauss's theorem in magnetism in day to day life? (ii) Two magnetic dipoles of moments 5Am^2 and 3Am^2 oriented along opposite directions are enclosed in a surface. What is total normal magnetic flux over this surface? (iii) Two point charges +4q and -q are enclosed in a surface in vacuum, and third charge 5q lies outside the surface. What is total normal electric flux over the surface?

Flux through an elemental area ds of the Gauss's surface is given by

Two ball bearings, one having a radius of 2 mm and a surface charge density equal to 5muC//m^(2) and another having a radius of 1mm and a surface density of charge equal to -2muC//m^(2) are situated inside a closed surface. The T.N.E.I. over the closed surface is

The dot product of electric field intensity and area vector is called electric flux,(True/False)

A position charge Q is placed at a distance of 4R above the centre of a disc of radius R. The magnitude of flux through the disc is phi . Now a hemispherical shell of radius R is placed over the disc such that it forms a closed surface. The flux through the curved surface (taking direction of area vector along outward normal as positive), is -
