### Find the Flux Through Each Surface

A closed surface with dimensions \( a = b = 0.400 \, \text{m} \) and \( c = 0.800 \, \text{m} \) is located as shown in the figure. The left edge of the closed surface is located at position \( x = a \). The electric field throughout the region is non-uniform and given by:

\[
\mathbf{E} = yz^2 \, \mathbf{i} + (xz^2 + 2) \, \mathbf{j} + (2xyz - 1) \, \mathbf{k}
\]

where \( x, y, z \) are in meters.

#### Diagram Explanation

The diagram depicts a rectangular prism aligned with the coordinate axes (x, y, z). The lengths of the sides aligned with the x and y axes are both \( a = b = 0.400 \, \text{m} \), while the side aligned with the z axis has a length \( c = 0.800 \, \text{m} \).

The electric field vector is expressed in three components, relating to the unit vectors \(\mathbf{i}\), \(\mathbf{j}\), and \(\mathbf{k}\):

- \( yz^2 \, \mathbf{i} \): Component in the x-direction.
- \( (xz^2 + 2) \, \mathbf{j} \): Component in the y-direction.
- \( (2xyz - 1) \, \mathbf{k} \): Component in the z-direction. 

This setup requires calculating the electric flux through each surface of the prism based on the given electric field expression.
