An infinitely long uniform line charge distribution of charge per unit length $\lambda$ lies parallel to the $y$-axis in the $y-z$ plane at $z=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} a$ (see figure). If the magnitude of the flux of the electric field through the rectangular surface $A B C D$ lying in the $x-y$ plane with its center at the origin is $\frac{\lambda L }{ n \varepsilon_0}$ (where $\varepsilon_0$ is the permittivity of free space),then the value of $n$ is

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

Consider four closed surfaces $S_1, S_2, S_3,$ and $S_4$ each enclosing the same charge $q_1$. Compare the electric flux through these surfaces.

Careful measurement of the electric field at the surface of a black box indicates that the net outward flux through the surface of the box is $8.0 \times 10^{3} \; N m^{2} / C$.
$(a)$ What is the net charge inside the box?
$(b)$ If the net outward flux through the surface of the box were zero,could you conclude that there were no charges inside the box? Why or why not?
