Question
The square surface shown in the figure measures 4.3 mm on each side. It is immersed in a uniform electric field with magnitude E = 2700 N/C and with field lines at an angle of 35° with a normal to the surface, as shown. Take that normal to be "outward," as though the surface were one face of a box. Calculate the electric flux through the surface.
