A Gaussian surface in the form of a cube is centred on a point charge Q. What is the flux through one face of the cube?

Answer»

Since the point charge is at the centre of the cube, the electric flux through each face is the same. Therefore, the electric flux through one face is1/6 th of the electric flux originating from or terminating at the point charge.

If ε is the permittivity of the medium, the electric flux through one face = \(\cfrac{Q}{6ε}\).
