surface charge density of conducting sphere, \sigma = 10 C/m²

we know, surface charge density is the rate of change of charge per unit area.

so, charge on conducting sphere, Q=\sigma A

where A is area of conducting sphere,

A = 4πr² , given 2r = 2.4 m

so, A = 4π × (1.2)² = 5.76π m²

now, charge on conducting sphere, Q = 10C/m² × 5.76π m² = 57.6π C

electric flux is the ratio of charge enclosed inside gaussian surface to the permittivity of medium.

value of permittivity in vaccum is 8.85 × 10^-12 C²/Nm²

so, electric flux = 57.6π/(8.85 × 10^-12)

= (57.6 × 3.14/8.85) × 10¹² Nm²/C

= 20.43 × 10¹² Nm²/C

= 2.043 × 10¹³ Nm²/C

[ note :- here answer is different because your given data must be different with actual data. well it's okay. you just use to find electric flux by using above concept ]
