If there is only one type of charge in the universe,then ($ \vec{E} $ = Electric field,$ \vec{d}s $ = Area vector):

  • A
    $ \oint \vec{E} \cdot d\vec{s} \neq 0 $ on any surface
  • B
    $ \oint \vec{E} \cdot d\vec{s} $ could not be defined
  • C
    $ \oint \vec{E} \cdot d\vec{s} = \infty $ if charge is inside
  • D
    $ \oint \vec{E} \cdot d\vec{s} = 0 $ if charge is outside,$ = \frac{q}{\varepsilon_{0}} $ if charge is inside

An infinitely long thin non-conducting wire is parallel to the $z$-axis and carries a uniform line charge density $\lambda$. It pierces a thin non-conducting spherical shell of radius $R$ in such a way that the arc $PQ$ subtends an angle $120^{\circ}$ at the centre $O$ of the spherical shell,as shown in the figure. The permittivity of free space is $\epsilon_0$. Which of the following statements is (are) true?
$(A)$ The electric flux through the shell is $\sqrt{3} R \lambda / \epsilon_0$
