(a) Electric flux,

Radius of the Gaussian surface,

Electric flux coming out through a surface depends on the net charge enclosed inside a body. It does not depend on the size of the body. If the radius of the Gaussian surface is doubled, then the flux passing through the surface remains the same i.e., -

(b)
