Four charges $2 \mu C, -3 \mu C, 4 \mu C, -4 \mu C$ and $-1 \mu C$ are enclosed by a Gaussian surface of radius $2 \ m$. The net outward flux through the Gaussian surface is (in $\mu V-m$):

  • A
    $\frac{2}{\epsilon_0}$
  • B
    zero
  • C
    $\frac{3}{\epsilon_0}$
  • D
    $\frac{5}{\epsilon_0}$
