Electric charge is uniformly distributed...

Electric charge is uniformly distributed along straight wire of radius 1 mm. The charge per cm length of the wire is Q coulomb. Another cylindrical surface of radius 50 cm and length 1 m symmetrically encloses the wire. The total electric flux passing through the cylindrical surface is

A

`(Q)/(epsilon_(0))`

B

`(100 Q)/(epsilon_(0))`

C

`(10 Q)/(pi epsilon_(0))`

D

`(100 Q)/(pi epsilon_(0))`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
`phi = (1)/(60) q = (100 Q)/(epsilon_(0))`
