To solve the problem, we will use Gauss's Law, which states that the electric flux (Φ) through a closed surface is directly proportional to the charge (q) enclosed within that surface. The mathematical expression for Gauss's Law is given by: \[ \Phi = \frac{q}{\epsilon_0} \] where: - \(\Phi\) is the electric flux, ...
