On two hollow spheres (shells) charges -q and +q are placed, so the flux on each is `phi`. Now, both are connected as shown in the figure, so total flux is…………

(a) `phi/2`
(b) `2phi`
(c) zero
(d) Uncertain

A

`phi/2`

B

`2phi`

C

zero

D

Uncertain

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Total charge on both the spheres.
`sumQ = +q + (-q)`
`therefore sumQ =0`
Therefore, `phi =(sumQ)/epsilon_(0)` (Gauss.s law)
`therefore phi =0`
