Two point charges and are placed at vertex and centre of face of the cube as shown in figure. The electric flux passing through the cube is :

Options
- A
- B
- C
- D
Correct answer
B.
Step-by-step solution
Using Gauss's law:
Charge is at vertex A of the cube. A vertex is shared by 8 cubes, so the flux contribution from through this cube is .
Charge is at the centre of face CDEF. A face center is shared by 2 cubes, so the flux contribution from through this cube is .
Total flux:
Charge is at vertex A of the cube. A vertex is shared by 8 cubes, so the flux contribution from through this cube is .
Charge is at the centre of face CDEF. A face center is shared by 2 cubes, so the flux contribution from through this cube is .
Total flux:
