Electric flux
Question

S1 and S2 are two hollow concentric spheres with charge q and 2q. Space between S1 and S2 is filled with a dielectric of dielectric constants.

The ratio of flux through S2 and flux through S1 is K. Then, the value of 9K11 is ________.

Moderate
Solution

With air in the space, between S1 and S2.

ϕS1=qε0 and ϕS2=2qε0

When a medium of K= 5 is filled in space

ϕS1=QKε0=ϕS15=q5ε0

And in this case, flux though S2

ϕS2= flux of S1+ flux of charge 2q=q5ε0+2qε0=q+10q5ε0=11q5ε0

 So, ratio ϕS1ϕS2=11 So,  9K11=9
