To find the electric flux through the six surfaces of a cube with a charge \( Q \) placed at its center, we can use Gauss's Law. Here’s a step-by-step solution: ### Step 1: Understand Gauss's Law Gauss's Law states that the electric flux \( \Phi \) through a closed surface is proportional to the charge \( Q_{\text{enc}} \) enclosed by that surface. Mathematically, it is expressed as: \[ \Phi = \frac{Q_{\text{enc}}}{\epsilon_0} \] where \( \epsilon_0 \) is the permittivity of free space. ...
