Sate and prove coulomb inverse square law using gauss theorem

Murali Ramalingam · Accepted Answer

We consider the Gaussian surface to be a sphere with the point charge as center.Since the idea is to find electric field at a point, say r meters away from the point charge, the radius of the sphere will also be r meters. By symmetry, electric field will be equal through every point on the sphere.The surface area of the sphere is 4*pi*.And net charge contained within the sphere is the point charge we started with, say q. We now apply Gauss’ theorem.Electric flux should be equal to E dA Since E is constant, we can just write E*4*pi*=q/. Since pi,q, epsilon are constant in this case, E is inversely proportional to , and therefore so is force.Hence proved.
