Which of the following statements about Gauss's law are correct? (There may be more than one correct choice.)

• A) Gauss's law is valid only for symmetric charge distributions, such as spheres and cylinders.
• B) If there is no charge inside of a Gaussian surface, the electric field must be zero at points of that surface.
• C) Only charge enclosed within a Gaussian surface can produce an electric field at points on that surface.
• D) If a Gaussian surface is completely inside an electrostatic conductor, the electric field must always be zero at all points on that surface.
• E) The electric flux passing through a Gaussian surface depends only on the amount of charge inside that surface, not on its size or shape.
