MCQ
What is the net magnetic flux through a closed surface?
- APositive
- BNegative
- ✓Zero
- DDepends on the nature of the surface
✓
Answer
Correct option: C.
Zero
Gauss’s law indicates that there are no sources or sinks of the magnetic field inside a closed surface. A “closed surface” is a surface that completely encloses a volume with no holes. Therefore, the net magnetic flux through a closed surface is zero.
