                    A charge q is located at the centre of a cube. The electric flux through any face is:            

    A)                 \[\frac{\pi q}{6(4\pi {{\varepsilon }_{0}})}\]        

    B)                 \[\frac{q}{6(4\pi {{\varepsilon }_{0}})}\]               

    C)                 \[\frac{2\pi q}{6(4\pi {{\varepsilon }_{0}})}\]      

    D)                 \[\frac{4\pi q}{6(4\pi {{\varepsilon }_{0}})}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

                     Key Idea: Gauss's law states that, the net electric flux through any closed surface is equal to the net charge inside the closed surface divided \[{{\varepsilon }_{0}}\].                 Thus, from Gauss's law                 \[\phi =\frac{q}{{{\varepsilon }_{0}}}\]                 This is the net flux coming out from cube.                 Since, a cube has 6 sides so electric flux through any face is                 \[\phi '=\frac{\phi }{6}=\frac{q}{6{{\varepsilon }_{0}}}\]
