Five charges,q each are placed at the comers of a regular pentagon of side a.          

i) What will be the electric field at O, the centre of the pentagon?
(ii) What will be the electric field at O if the charge from one of the comers (say A) is removed?
(iii) What will be the electric field at O if the charge q at A is replaced by – q?
(b) How would your answer to (a) be affected if pentagon is replaced by n-sided regular polygon with charge q at each of its comers?

The following are the topics covered in this chapter: Electric Field and Field Lines, Gauss's Law, Electric Dipole, Conductors and Insulators, and Electric Flux. 

Indeed, it is an easy chapter of Class 12 Physics. In this chapter, you will learn about the foundational concepts like Gauss's law and electric fields.

Flux through the 6 sides of square (i.e. cube)

${?}_T=\frac{q_{in}}{{\epsilon }_0}=\frac{12\times 10^{-6}C}{{\epsilon }_0}$   

Flux through a square

$?=\frac{{?}_T}{6}=\frac{12\times 10^{-6}}{{\epsilon }_0\times 6}=\frac{2\times 10^{-6}}{{\epsilon }_0}$

$\Rightarrow ?=225.98\times 10^{3}N{m}^2/C?226N{m}^2/C$     

In the medical entrance test NEET, this chapter has a moderate weightage. You can expect around 2-3 questions of this chapter that contributes to the 3-5% of the total marks in the Physics section.

From Guass’s Law

${\displaystyle ?\overrightarrow{E}.\overrightarrow{dA}=\frac{q_{in}}{{\in }_0}}$            

$E.4\pi r^2=\frac{{\displaystyle \underset{0}{\overset{r}{\int }}\left(4\pi r^2.dr\right)\left(\alpha r\right)}}{{\in }_0}$            

$E=\left(\frac{\alpha r^2}{4{\in }_0}\right)$
