A charge Q is placed at the centre of a cube. Find the flux of the electric field through the six surfaces of the cube.

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

**Answer:** Flux through each face = Q6ϵ0\frac{Q}{6\epsilon_0}. **Step-by-Step Explanation:** For a charge Q at the centre of a cube, by symmetry, the flux through each of the six faces is equal. Total flux = Q/ϵ0Q/\epsilon_0. Flux per face = Q6ϵ0\frac{Q}{6\epsilon_0} .
