Answer:

Coulomb Inverse Square Law

To derive Coulomb’s Law from gauss law or to find the intensity of electric field due to a point charge +q at any point in space using Gauss’s law ,draw a Gaussian sphere of radius r at the centre of which charge +q is located.

For a area element dS around any point P on the Gaussian surface both E and dS are directed radially outward,that is ,the angle between E and dS is zero

The flux passing through the area element dS ,that is,

d φ =E.dS= EdS cos 0°= EdS

Therefore flux through entire Gaussian sphere is

Φ=∫EdS

But ∫dS is the total surface area of the sphere and is equal to 4πr2,that is,

Φ=E(4πr²)

But according to Gauss’s law for electrostatics

Φ=q/ε0

Where q is the charge enclosed within the closed surface

By comparing above equations ,we get

E(4πr²) =q/ε0

As q0 is in electric field,

F=qE substituting this gives

F=qo q/4πε0 r²
