In which figure , the electric flux is maximum ?
electric flux through A , B , C respectively is
φ{a} , φ{b} , φ{c}
none of these
φ{a} = φ{b} = φ{c}
φ{a} > φ{b} > φ{c}
φ{a} < φ{b} < φ{c}
φ{a} < φ{c} > φ{b}

According to Gauss 's law ,the electric flux linked with a closed surface depends only on net charge enclosed by that surface .
It does not depend on size of closed figure. Hence electric flux linked with the three figures is same .
( observe the figure ,they all enclose a charge "q" )
