An electric charge is placed at the centre of a cube of side a. The electric flux through one of its foces will be

A

`(q)/(6 epsilon_(0))`

B

`(q)/(epsilon_(0)a^(2))`

C

`(q)/(4 pi epsilon_(0) a^(2))`

D

`(q)/(epsilon_(0))`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

According to Gauss.s law, the electric flux through the cube is `(q)/(epsilon_(0))`. Since there are six faces, the flux through one face is `(q)/(6 epsilon_(0))`.
