Eight identical cubes are required to arrange so that this charge is at the centre of the cube formed. Find the flux.

  1. q / ε₀
  2. q / 8ε₀
  3. q / 6ε₀
  4. q / 4ε₀

Correct answer: q / 8ε₀

Solution

The total flux through a closed surface enclosing a charge q is given by Gauss's law as q/ε₀. Since the charge is at the center of one of the eight identical cubes, the flux through one cube is 1/8th of the total flux, i.e., q/8ε₀.
