2. Gauss’s Law
The total flux of electric field out of any closed surface is equal to the charge contained inside the surface divided by

3. The flux of

4. Electric flux through a sphere
A positive point charge q=3.0 C is surrounded by a sphere with radius 0.2 m centered on the charge. Find the electric flux through the sphere due to this charge.

5. S Definition of a solid angle does not depend on radius The largest
Then

8. Proof of Gauss’s Law
