An electric field of magnitude 464 V/m passing through a flat square plate of length 0.644 m on a side makes an angle of 63.6 degrees with the surface of plate. Determine the electric flux passing through the surface of the square plate. (Hint: the angle given here is the angle that the field makes with the surface, not with the area vector. In what direction does the area vector of a surface point relative to that surface?)
