Statement-1: Suppose that a Gaussian surface enclose no net charge. Gauss law requires that electric field equals zero for all points on the surface.
Statement-2: If electric field equals zero everywhere on the surface, Gauss law requires that there be no net charge inside.

A

Statement-1 is true, statement-2 is true and statement-2 is correct explanation for statement-1.

B

Statement-1 is true, statement-2 is true and statement-2 is NOT the correct explanation for statement-1.

C

Statement-1 is true, statement-2 is false.

D

Statement -1 is false, statement -2 is true.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
`phi=0Rightarrowq=0Rightarrowintvec(E)dvec(s)=0` This does not necessarily implies that `E=0`.
