lf the electric field around a surface is given by |vecE|=(Q)/(E_(0)|vecA|) where vecA is the normal area of surface and Q_("in") is the charge enclosed by the surface. This relation of Gauss's law is valid when

the surface is equipotential.

the magnitude of the electric field is constant.

the magnitude of the electric field is constant and the surface is equipotential.
