An infinitely long uniform line charge distribution of charge per unit length λ lies parallel to the y-axis in the y-z plane at 3/2a (see figure). If the magnitude of the flux of the electric field through the rectangular surface ABCD lying in the x-y plane with its centre at the origin is λL/nε00=permittivity of free space), then the value of n is:

Flux from total cylindrical surface (angle = 2 π)

= Qin/ε0

Flux from cylindrical surface AB = flux from the given surface
