For surfaces S3 and S4 all the lines (and thus flux) that go into the volume enclosed by the surface must exit the volume enclosed by the closed surface as well, for a net flux of zero. For S1 and S2 all the line leave the volume or enter the volume, respectively, for a net flux in each case. A positive net flux for S1 (indicating a net positive charge enclosed) and negative flux for S2 (indicating a net negative charge enclosed) | |
