Charge `q_(1)` is inside the Gaussain surface , charge `q_(2)` just outside the surface. Does the electric flux through the surface.Does the electric flux through the surface depend on `q_(1)` ? Does it depend on `q_(2)` ? Explain.

Text Solution

Electric flux through the surface depends on `q_(1)` ( as `q_(1)` is inside the surface). But it does not depend on `q_(2)` , it being outside Gaussain surface. `q_(2)` does not contribute to electric flux.
