The electric flux through the surface

A

in figure (iv) is the largest

B

in figure(iii) is the least

C

in figure (ii) is same as in figure (iii) but in smaller then figure (iv)

D

is the same for all the figures

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
The electric flux through the all four surface is same i.e, `q//e_(0)` .It does not depend on size and shape of the surface but depends on the amount of charge enclosed by the surface only.
