Step 1
Gauss's Law states that the total electric flux $\Phi_E$ through any closed surface (a Gaussian surface) is proportional to the total electric charge $Q_{enc}$ enclosed within that surface. The formula is given by: $\Phi_E = \frac{Q_{enc}}{\epsilon_0}$ where Show more…

The figure shows four Gaussian surfaces surrounding a distribution of charges. Which Gaussian surfaces have an electric flux of +q/ε0 through them? Which of the following statements about Gauss's law are correct? A) Gauss's law is valid only for symmetric charge distributions, such as spheres and cylinders. B) If there is no charge inside of a Gaussian surface, the electric field must be zero at points of that surface. C) Only charge enclosed within a Gaussian surface can produce an electric field at points on that surface. D) The electric flux passing through a Gaussian surface depends only on the amount of charge inside that surface, not on its size or shape.
