If over a surface, then:
- Athe magnitude of electric field on the surface is constant.
- Ball the charges must necessarily be inside the surface.
- Cthe electric field inside the surface is necessarily uniform.
- Dthe number of flux lines entering the surface must be equal to the number of flux lines leaving it.

Correct answer: D
$$\phi_{\mathrm{closed}}=0$$
So, $$\mathrm{\phi_{in}=\phi_{out}}$$

Number of field lines entering is equal number of field lines leaving.
