Question 5

A student measures the electric flux through a closed spherical surface of
volume V to be X. She then removes the charge from inside the spherical
surface and places it in a closed cylindrical surface of volume V/2. She then
claims that the flux through the cylindrical surface is 2X. Is the student right or
wrong ? Give reasons to your answers
