Gauss’s law

Target entity: Gauss’s law
Context triple: [Carl Friedrich Gauss, notableWork, Gauss’s law]

• A. Maxwell's equations
  Maxwell's equations are the fundamental set of four equations in classical electromagnetism that describe how electric and magnetic fields are generated and interact with charges and currents.
• B. Maxwell stress tensor
  The Maxwell stress tensor is a mathematical construct in classical electromagnetism that represents how electric and magnetic fields transmit mechanical stresses, such as pressure and tension, through space and matter.
• C. A Treatise on Electricity and Magnetism
  A Treatise on Electricity and Magnetism is James Clerk Maxwell’s foundational 19th-century work that systematically formulated the classical theory of electromagnetism, including the famous Maxwell’s equations.
• D. On Physical Lines of Force
  "On Physical Lines of Force" is an 1861–62 series of papers by James Clerk Maxwell that introduced the field concept and laid the foundations for classical electromagnetic theory.
• E. law of universal gravitation
  The law of universal gravitation is Newton’s fundamental physical law stating that every pair of masses in the universe attracts each other with a force proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.
• F. None of above. chosen
• G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.

Target entity: Gauss’s law
Target entity description: Gauss’s law is a fundamental principle of electromagnetism that relates the electric flux through a closed surface to the electric charge enclosed within that surface.
