Five charges +q, +5q, -2q, +3q and -4q are situated as shown in the figure. The electric flux due to this configuration through the surface S is:
Show Hint
Remember Gauss's Law: The total electric flux through a closed surface is proportional to the net electric charge enclosed within the surface. Charges outside the surface do not contribute to the net flux through the surface.
