This area points in the $z$ direction. Calculate $\vec{E}$ for some general point $(x, y, z_0)$. Evaluate the flux $\oint Eda\cos\theta$ involving double integrals with the limits for $x$ and $y$ given. | |
| Sep 14, 2021 at 17:35 | comment | added | garyp | There are two things that need sorting out. Are you looking for electric field flux or displacement field flux? By context I think you are looking for displacement field flux. If you can't think of a way to calculate ${\bf D}$ directly, perhaps you can find it another way. You would have to make the reasonable assumption that the problem lies in a vacuum. | |
