Use Gauss's law to prove that the electric field inside a uniformly charged spherical shell is zero.

Important Questions on Electric Charges and Field
Given the electric field in the region , find the net electric flux through the cube and the charge enclosed by it.

Using Gauss's law, deduce the expression for the electric field due to a uniformly charged spherical conducting shell of radius at a point outside the shell.
Plot a graph showing variation of electric field as a function of and ( being the distance from the centre of the shell).

Define electric flux quantity?
A point charge is at a distance of directly above the centre of a square of side , as shown in Fig. 1.163. Use Gauss' law to obtain the expression for the electric flux through the square.
