Electric Charges and Fields

One of the fundamental properties is the electromagnetic property. Charge cannot be destroyed by any process and this contributes formally to the law of charge conservation.

Question

SA
S2
Consider the three charges and the four Gaussian surfaces shown in the image
above. Two of the Gaussian surfaces have the same amount of electric flux passing
through them. Identify these two surfaces (S1, S2, S3, or S4), then explain your
reasoning.

Expert Solution

Step 1

Guass Law is defined as

$\int E \cdot d s = \frac{Q_{inclosed}}{\in_{0}}$

Here E is the electric field, Q_inclosed is charge inclosed and $\in_{0}$ is the permittivity
