6) Question Explanation:
Calculating the electric flux through a spherical segment when a point charge is placed on the
plane of its circular base.
Concept:
Gauss's Law and Solid Angle.
Solution:

According to Gauss's Law, the total flux through a closed surface is . For an open surface,
the flux depends on the solid angle subtended by that surface at the position of the charge.
The charge Q is placed at point P, which lies exactly on the plane of the circular face of the
spherical part.
For a point charge on the flat face of a hemisphere, the flux is shared equally between the two
sides of the plane.
However, in this specific geometry, point P is inside the sphere's boundary. If we consider the
symmetry, any field line emanating from Q that goes "left" into the large spherical volume will
eventually pass through the spherical surface.
Since the charge is placed on the plane of the circular opening, exactly half of the total field
lines (representing half of the total flux) will enter the spherical region and pass through the
curved part.
Therefore, the flux through the spherical part is:

Explain Question : Using pandemic health data for 900 people, verify the count of individuals
having exactly two health issues and those having no health issues at all.
Concept : Set Theory; Venn Diagram application; calculating regions for "exactly n" elements
and "neither".
Solution :
n(F∪C) = 330
n(F) + n(C) – n(F∩C) = 330

Explain Question : For a set A with 5 elements, evaluate the total number of reflexive
relations and those that are also symmetric or specifically not symmetric.
Concept : Combinatorics of relations; formulas for Reflexive and Symmetric
relations.
Solution :
1. Reflexive Relations For a relation to be reflexive, every element must relate to itself. In our
5 × 5 matrix, the diagonal elements (a, a) are mandatory (they have only 1 choice: to be
included). The remaining n2 – n elements (25 – 5 = 20) can either be in the relation or not ( 2
choices each).
• Formula: .
2. Reflexive and Symmetric Relations
• Reflexive: Diagonal elements are fixed (included).
• Symmetric: If (a, b) is included, (b, a) must also be included. This means we only have a
choice for the elements above the diagonal. The elements below the diagonal are automatically
determined by the ones above.

• Number of elements above the diagonal = .

10
• Formula: =2 .
3. Reflexive but NOT Symmetric Relations To find relations that are reflexive but not
symmetric, we subtract the "Symmetric and Reflexive" count from the "Total Reflexive" count.
• Calculation: 220 – 210 = 210(210–1).

n(S1 × S3) = 48
S2 ∩ S3 = {b, d}
n(S1 × S2) ∩ (S1 × S3) = 24
n{(S1 × S2) ∪ (S1 × S3)}
= n(S1 × S2) + n (S1 × S3)
–n{(S1 × S2) ∩ (S1 × S3)}
