JEE Main 2017 (Online) 9th April Morning Slot Physics - Electrostatics Question 191 English

Let the respective electric fluxes through the surfaces be $${\Phi _1},$$ $${\Phi _2},$$ $${\Phi _3}$$ and $${\Phi _4}$$. Then :
$${\Phi _1}$$ < $${\Phi _2}$$ = $${\Phi _3}$$ > $${\Phi _4}$$
$${\Phi _1}$$ > $${\Phi _2}$$ > $${\Phi _3}$$ > $${\Phi _4}$$
$${\Phi _1}$$ = $${\Phi _2}$$ = $${\Phi _3}$$ = $${\Phi _4}$$
$${\Phi _1}$$ > $${\Phi _3}$$ ; $${\Phi _2}$$ < $${\Phi _4}$$

Explanation

Net flux through a closed surface,

$$\phi $$ = $${{{q_{enclose}}} \over {{\varepsilon _0}}}$$

qenclosed = charge enclosed by closed surface.

For surface S1,

$$\phi $$1 = $${1 \over {{\varepsilon _0}}}$$ (2q)

For surface S2,

$$\phi $$2 = $${1 \over {{\varepsilon _0}}}$$ (q + q + q $$-$$ q) = $${1 \over {{\varepsilon _0}}}$$(2q)

For Surface S3,

$$\phi $$3 = $${1 \over {{\varepsilon _0}}}$$ (q + q) = $${1 \over {{\varepsilon _0}}}$$ (2q)

For surface S4,

$$\phi $$4 = $${1 \over {{\varepsilon _0}}}$$ (8q $$-$$ 2q $$-$$ 4q) = $${1 \over {{\varepsilon _0}}}$$ (2q)

$$\therefore\,\,\,$$ $$\phi $$1 = $$\phi $$2 = $$\phi $$3 = $$\phi $$4
