GAUSS'S LAW - Integral form |
 |
The flux calculation done in Example 4 above is a general result for flux out of any closed surface, known as Gauss's law. |
|
Total outward electric flux through a closed surface is equal to times the charge enclosed by the volume defined by the surface |

Mathematicaly, the surface integral of the electric field over any closed surface is equal to the net charge enclosed divided by  |
