Which statement is the best for electric flux of a point charge?
Correct answer: C. Independent of shape of surface in which charge is enclosed
- A. Independent of charge
- B. Independent of medium
- C. Independent of shape of surface in which charge is enclosed
- D. Independent position of charge in shape
Explanation
Electric flux is given as; Φ =Q/ε0So, electric flux depends upon medium and charged enclosed. It is independent of shape of surface in which charge is enclosed.

About Electrostatics
Electrostatics describes forces between charges through Coulomb's law, electric fields and field intensity, then uses electric potential to measure energy per unit charge. Capacitors store charge and electrical energy, with capacitance depending on geometry and dielectric material, not simply on the amount of charge present.
