Gauss's Law - Charged Sphere Electric Field

What is the purpose of creating a Gaussian surface around a charged sphere?

• To measure the charge inside the sphere

• To find the mass of the sphere

• To determine the radius of the sphere

• To simplify the calculation of the electric field

According to Gauss's law, what is the relationship between electric flux and the electric field?

• Electric flux is independent of the electric field

• Electric flux is the product of the electric field and the area

• Electric flux is the sum of the electric field and the area

• Electric flux is the difference between the electric field and the area

How does the electric field outside a uniformly charged sphere compare to that of a point charge?

• It is weaker than a point charge

• It is the same as a point charge

• It varies depending on the distance

• It is stronger than a point charge

What happens to the electric field inside a conductor?

• It depends on the external field

• It becomes infinite

• It becomes zero

• It remains constant

How does the electric field inside an insulator depend on the charge distribution?

• It is always uniform

• It is independent of charge distribution

• It depends on the radius and charge distribution

• It is always zero
