The area vector of a Y–Z-plane square points along X (î). Only the x-component of E contributes: φ = E_x·A = 3 × (2²) = 12 Vm. Option (a).

Step 1 — area vector: a square lying in the Y–Z plane has its normal along the X-axis, so A = A î with A = (2 m)² = 4 m².

Step 2 — electric flux φ = E·A = (3î − 4ĵ + 2k̂)·(4î). Only the î component survives the dot product.
