    Given the electric field

    E = (2.5• j + 3.5• k) * 10³ N/C

    Given the radius of the circular path r=2.5m.

    Φ=?

    Flux In an electric field is given as

    Φ=∮E•dA. From r=0 to r=2.5m

    Given that A of a striker is

    The area is in yz plane then, it's normal will be in x-direction

    A=πr²

    Then, dA=2πrdr •i

    Φ=∮E•dA. From r=0 to r=2.5m

    Φ=∮ (2.5j + 3.5k) * 10³• (2πrdr i) From r=0 to r=2.5m

    Note that, i•i=j•j=k•k=1

    i•j=j•i=k•i=i•k=j•k=k•j=0

    Then,

    Φ=10³∮ 0dr From r=0 to r=2.5m

    Φ = 0 Nm²/C

    b. When it is directed in the angle of 45° between above xy

    Then,

    dA = (2πrCos45 i + 2πrSin45 j) dr

    Φ=∮E•dA. From r=0 to r=2.5m

    Φ=∮ (2.5j + 3.5k) * 10³• (2πrCos45dr i + 2πrSin45 j). From r=0 to r=2.5m.

    Φ=10³∮ (2.5j + 3.5k) • (2πrCos45dr i + 2πrSin45 j). From r=0 to r=2.5m.

    Φ=10³∮ 5πrSin45 dr

    Φ=10³*5π*Sin45 [r²/2] r=0 r=2.5m

    Φ=10³ * 5π*Sin45*½[2.5²-0²]

    Φ=10³ * 5π * Sin45 * ½ * 6.25

    Φ=10³*34.71

    Φ=34.71*10³ Nm²/C
