To solve the problem, we will analyze the situation using Gauss's law, which relates the electric flux through a closed surface to the charge enclosed by that surface. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Setup**: We have a spherical rubber balloon that carries a charge \( Q \) uniformly distributed over its surface. Initially, the balloon has a radius \( R \). 2. **Apply Gauss's Law**: According to Gauss's law, the electric flux \( \Phi \) through a closed surface is given by the equation: \[ ...
