A few electric field lines for a system of two charges $Q_1$ and $Q_2$ fixed at two different points on the $\mathrm{x}$-axis are shown in the figure. These lines suggest that $Image$

$(A)$ $\left|Q_1\right|>\left|Q_2\right|$

$(B)$ $\left|Q_1\right|<\left|Q_2\right|$

$(C)$ at a finite distance to the left of $\mathrm{Q}_1$ the electric field is zero

$(D)$ at a finite distance to the right of $\mathrm{Q}_2$ the electric field is zero

A charged shell of radius $R$ carries a total charge $Q$. Given $\Phi$ as the flux of electric field through a closed cylindrical surface of height $h$, radius $r$ and with its center same as that of the shell. Here, center of the cylinder is a point on the axis of the cylinder which is equidistant from its top and bottom surfaces. Which of the following option(s) is/are correct ? $\epsilon_0$ is the permittivity of free space]

$(1)$ If $h >2 R$ and $r > R$ then $\Phi=\frac{ Q }{\epsilon_0}$

$(2)$ If $h <\frac{8 R }{5}$ and $r =\frac{3 R }{5}$ then $\Phi=0$

$(3)$ If $h >2 R$ and $r =\frac{4 K }{5}$ then $\Phi=\frac{ Q }{5 \epsilon_0}$

$(4)$ If $h >2 R$ and $r =\frac{3 K }{5}$ then $\Phi=\frac{ Q }{5 \epsilon_0}$

Careful measurement of the electric field at the surface of a black box indicates that the net outward flux through the surface of the box is $8.0 \times 10^{3} \;Nm ^{2} / C .$

$(a)$ What is the net charge inside the box?

$(b)$ If the net outward flux through the surface of the box were zero, could you conclude that there were no charges inside the box? Why or Why not?
