Assertion: Four point charges $q_1, q_2, q_3$ and $q_4$ are as shown in the figure. The flux over the shown Gaussian surface depends only on charges $q_1$ and $q_2$.
Reason: Electric field at all points on the Gaussian surface depends only on charges $q_1$ and $q_2$.

$A$ charge $q$ is placed at the centre of the base of a cubical box of side $a$ with the top open. The flux of the electric field through the open surface is not considered,but the flux through the remaining five surfaces of the cubical box is:

$q_1, q_2, q_3$ and $q_4$ are point charges located as shown in the figure,and $S$ is a spherical Gaussian surface of radius $R$. Which of the following is true according to Gauss's law?

The figure shows two situations in which a Gaussian cube sits in an electric field. The arrows and values indicate the directions and magnitudes (in $N-m^2/C$) of the electric flux through the faces of the cube. What is the net charge (in the two situations) inside the cube?

$A$ charge $q$ is located at the centre of a cube. The electric flux through any face is
