Question

Transcribed Image Text:The image presents a question about electric flux through two spherical Gaussian surfaces. Here's a detailed transcription and explanation:
### Diagram Description:
1. **Surface A:**
- A small circle labeled `A` with radius `R`.
- Inside it, there is a positive charge, `+Q`.
2. **Surface B:**
- A larger circle labeled `B` with radius `2R`.
- Inside it, there is a positive charge, `+2Q`.
### Question:
**Which spherical Gaussian surface has the larger electric flux?**
### Options:
- Surface A
- Surface B
- They have the same flux.
- Not enough information to tell.
The diagrams show two different Gaussian surfaces with charges inside, posing a conceptual question on the electric flux across each surface, as per Gauss's law.
