Question

In a dipole, the Gauss theorem value will be (a) 1 (b) 0 (c) -1 (d) 2 I had been asked this question in an online quiz.

Answer 1

Correct choice is (b) 0 The best I can explain: The Gauss theorem for an electric field is given by Div(D)= ρ. In a dipole only static charge exists and the divergence will be zero. Thus the Gauss theorem value for the dipole will be zero.
