Gauss's law states that

  • A
    the total electric flux through a closed surface is $\frac{1}{\varepsilon_0}$ times the total charge placed near the closed surface.
  • B
    the total electric flux through a closed surface is $\frac{1}{\varepsilon_0}$ times the total charge enclosed by the closed surface.
  • C
    the total electric flux through an open surface is $\frac{1}{\varepsilon_0}$ times the total charge placed near the open surface.
  • D
    the line integral of electric field around the boundary of an open surface is $\frac{1}{\varepsilon_0}$ times the total charge placed near the open surface.
