Q71 / 90 · JEE Main 2022 (27 Jun Shift 2) · Physics

If a charge q is placed at the centre of a closed hemispherical non-conducting surface, the total flux passing through the flat surface would be

  • Correct answer
    B
    q2ε0
  • C
    q4ε0
  • D
    q2πε0

Solution

Figure

Assume a complete sphere, then flux due to a charge placed at the center of sphere is ϕ=qε0

Flux through hemisphere surface is equal to flux passing through flat surface ϕ=12×qε0=q2ε0 

Figure  

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
