What is the net flux of the uniform electric field of exercise 1.15 through a cube of side 20 \mathrm{~cm} oriented so that its faces are parallel to the coordinate planes?
What is the net flux of the uniform electric field of exercise 1.15 through a cube of side 20 \mathrm{~cm} oriented so that its faces are parallel to the coordinate planes?

Ans: It is given that all the faces of the cube are parallel to the coordinate planes. Clearly, the number of field lines entering the cube is equal to the number of field lines entering out of the cube.
As a result, the net flux through the cube can be calculated to be zero.
