Assertion: According to Gauss' law, E.dA=Σqε0. Here, E is the resultant electric field due to all charges present inside as well as outside the closed surface. On the other hand, the charge q, appearing in the law, is only the charge contained within the closed surface.

Reason: Gauss' law is applicable for fields which are conservative and obey inverse square law.
