Question
Electric charge is uniformly distributed along a long straight wire of radius 1mm. The charge per cm length of the wire is Q coulomb. Another cylindrical surface of radius 50 cm and length 1m symmetrically encloses the wire as shown in the figure. The total electric flux passing through the cylindrical surface is

Options:
A .  Qϵ0
B .  100Qϵ0
C .  10Q(πϵ0)
D .  100Q(πϵ0)
Answer: Option B
:
B
Charge enclosed by cylindrical surface (length 100 cm) is Qexc=100Q. By applying Gauss's law
ϕ=1ϵ0(Qeγα)=1ϵ0(100Q)
