1. Electric Charges and Fields
easy

A point charge $q$ is placed at a distance $a/2$ directly above the centre of a square of side $a$. The electric flux through the square is

A

$\frac{q}{{{\varepsilon _0}}}$

B

$\frac{q}{{\pi {\varepsilon _0}}}$

C

$\frac{q}{{4{\varepsilon _0}}}$

D

$\frac{q}{{6{\varepsilon _0}}}$

Solution

(d) An imaginary cube can be made by considering charge $q$ at the centre and given square is one of it's face.
So flux from given square (i.e. one face) $\varphi = \frac{q}{{6{\varepsilon _0}}}$
