Q.No.12.8: - Is it true that Gauss’s Law states that the total number of lines of forces crossing any closed surface in the outward direction is proportional to the net positive charge enclosed within surface.

Q.No.12.8: - Is it true that Gauss’s Law states that the total number of lines of forces crossing any closed surface in the outward direction is proportional to the net positive charge enclosed within surface.

Ans: - Yes this is true. According to Gauss’s law the total no of electric field lines coming out of a closed surface is proportional to the total no of charges present in that closed surface.

Mathematically,

The above statement is true.
