Let us assume the universe filled with positive charge. About a particular point, all the positive charged particles will be symmetrical. Now consider a sphere of radius $r < \infty$ and apply Gauss law. According to Gauss law the electric flux through the sphere will be some finite value as it contains some positive charge. But by symmetry the electric field through the sphere and hence electric flux will be zero. This is a contradiction.

classical mechanics - Moment of a force about a given axis (Torque) - Scalar or vectorial?
I am studying Statics and saw that: The moment of a force about a given axis (or Torque) is defined by the equation: $M_X = (\vec r \times \...
