→This question contains Statement$-1$ and Statement$-2$. Of the four choices given after the statements, choose the one that best describes the two statements.
Statement$-1$: For a mass $M$ kept at the centre ofa cube of side '$a$', the flux of gravitational field passing through its sides $4\pi GM.$
Statement$-2$: If the direction of a field due to a point source is radial and its dependence on the distance '$r$' from the source is given as $\frac{1}{r^2}$ , its flux through a closed surface depends only on the strength of the source enclosed by the surface and not on the size or shape of the surface.
