$\text{Hint: The electrostatic field is a conservative field.}$ $\text{Explanation: Gauss' law concerns the electric flux. It is in no way connected to the conservation of energy.}$ $\text{The electric flux through a closed surface to the charge enclosed.}$ $\text{Gauss's law is a direct consequence of Coulomb's law and is derived using the concept of field lines spreading radially from a charge.}$ $\text{It is a mathematical restatement of the inverse square law, which relates to charge distribution.}$ $\text{It has no direct connection with the conservation of energy.}$ $\text{Conservation of energy applies to the work done by the field, but Gauss's law arises from the symmetry of electric fields, not energy conservation.}$ $\text{The electric field produced by a charge is conservative because the work done by the field is path-independent.}$ $\text{This is a key property of conservative fields.}$ $\text{Coulomb's law directly implies a conservative electric field which means the electric field has no curl.}$ $\text{Every central force is a conservative force and the Coulomb force is also a conservative force.}$ $\text{Hence, option (1) is the correct answer.}$
