Define electric flux. Write its SI unit. It a scalar or a vector quantity?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Electric flux `phi_E` passing through a surface area ` oversetto s ` placed in an electric field `oversetto E ` is given by :
` phi__E=oint oversetto E.oversetto (ds) `
SI unit of electric flux is `N m^(2) C^(-1) ` and electric flux is a scalar quantity.
