The electric field in a region is given by
. The charge contained inside a cubical volume bounded by the surface x = 0, x = 2m, y = 0, y = 2m, z = 0 and z = 2m is nε 0 E 0 . Find the value of n.

Sol. Given
So flux = 

Now total flux = sum of flux through each face
∴ Total flux =
+
+
+
+
+ 
first four terms are = 0, because angle between
and
is 90 o so
.
= 0
Total flux =
+ 
For ADEH:
= E 0
= E 0
(0) = 0 [ x = 0]
for BCFG:
= E 0 x
= E 0 a 
So, total flux = 0 +
. ds 
= E 0 a
= AE 0 a = E 0 a 3 ⇒ ∴ q in =
=
= 1.416 × 10
