Calculations based on Gauss's Law

Gauss's Law

Gauss's Law is a general law applying to any closed surface that permits to calculate the field of an enclosed charge by mapping the field on a surface outside the charge distribution. The typical case, is a charge particle with spherical symmetry.

Electric flux = enclosed charge / permittivity

The equation is:

Φ =Q/ϵ

Where:

Φ: Electric flux

Q: Enclosed charge by the surface

ϵ: Permittivity

Let value of Φ be x ; ϵ be y
