If a charge $q$ is placed at the centre of a closed hemispherical non-conducting surface, the total flux passing through the flat surface would be

A

$\frac{q}{\varepsilon_{0}}$

B

$\frac{q}{2 \varepsilon_{0}}$

C

$\frac{q}{4 \varepsilon_{0}}$

D

$\frac{ q }{2 \pi \varepsilon_{0}}$

(JEE MAIN-2022)

Solution

Total flux through complete spherical surface is $\frac{ q }{\varepsilon_{0}}$

So the flux through curved surface will be $\frac{q}{2 \varepsilon_{0}}$. The flux through flat surface will be zero.

Remark : Electric flux through flat surface is zero but no option is given, option is available for electric flux passing through curved surface.
