A{'text': '5 × 10⁵ N m²/C', 'label': 'A'}
B{'text': '1.77 × 10⁴ N m²/C', 'label': 'B'}
C{'text': '4.42 × 10⁻⁶ N m²/C', 'label': 'C'}
D{'text': '5.65 × 10⁵ N m²/C', 'label': 'D'}
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. {'text': '5.65 × 10⁵ N m²/C', 'label': 'D'}
1. By Gauss's law, Φ = Q_enc / ε₀.
2. Substitute: Φ = 5 × 10⁻⁶ / 8.85 × 10⁻¹².
3. = 5.65 × 10⁵ N·m²/C.
4. Result is independent of the shape of the closed surface.
