    Find the charge on the sphere. (b) What is the total electric flux leaving the surface of the sphere?
    Ans : Diameter of the sphere, d = 2.4 m

    Radius of the sphere, r = 1.2 m

    Surface charge density, = 80.0 μC/m2 = 80 × 10-6 C/m2

    Total charge on the surface of the sphere,

    Q = Charge density × Surface area

    =

    = 80 × 10-6 × 4 × 3.14 × (1.2)2

    = 1.447 × 10-3 C

    Therefore, the charge on the sphere is 1.447 × 10-3 C.
    (b) Total electric flux () leaving out the surface of a sphere containing net charge Q is given by the relation,



    Where,

    `` \epsilon``0 = Permittivity of free space

    = 8.854 × 10-12 N-1C2 m-2

    Q = 1.447 × 10-3 C



    = 1.63 × 108 N C-1 m2

    Therefore, the total electric flux leaving the surface of the sphere is 1.63 × 108 N C-1 m2.
