In (Figure 1), two objects, O1 and O2, have charges +1.0μC and −2.0μC, respectively, and a third object, O3, is electrically neutral.
A) What is the electric flux through the surface A1 that encloses all three objects?
Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.
Φ1 = Value Units
B) What is the electric flux through the surface A2 that encloses the third object only?
Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.

The electric flux that flows through any closed surface is entirely dependent on the charge contained by the surface. Any charge not contained within the closed surface contributes nothing in the flux. In accordance with Gauss’s law the electric flux that flows for any closed Surface is reflected in the phrase.
