A cylinder of radius $R$ and length $L$ is placed in a uniform electric field $E$ parallel to  the cylinder axis. The total flux for the surface of the cylinder is given by-

What is the net flux of the uniform electric field of $E =3 \times 10^{3} i\; N / C $ through a cube of side $20\; cm$ oriented so that its faces are parallel to the coordinate planes?

An infinite line charge is at the axis of a cylinder of length $1 \,m$ and radius $7 \,cm$. If electric field at any point on the curved surface of cylinder is $250 \,NC ^{-1}$, then net electric flux through the cylinder is ............ $Nm ^2 C ^{-1}$

A hollow cylinder has a charge $q$ coulomb within it. If $\phi$ is the electric flux in units of $volt-meter$ associated with the curved surface $B,$ the flux linked with the plane surface $A$ in units of $V-m$ will be
