To find the electric flux emanating from a large hollow metallic sphere with a positive charge at its center, we can use Gauss's law, which states that the electric flux (Φ) through a closed surface is equal to the charge (Q) enclosed by that surface divided by the permittivity of free space (ε₀). ### Step-by-step solution: 1. **Identify the charge (Q)**: The charge at the center of the sphere is given as \( Q = 35.4 \, \mu C \). \[ Q = 35.4 \times 10^{-6} \, C ...
