The square can be considered as one face of a cube of edge 10 cm with a centre where charge q is placed. According to Gauss’s theorem for a cube, total electric flux is through all its six faces.
Hence, electric flux through one face of the cube i.e., through the square,
Where, ∈0 = Permittivity of free space
= 8.854 × 10−12 N−1C2 m−2 q = 10 μC = 10 × 10−6 C
∴
= 1.88 × 105 N m2 C−1
Therefore, electric flux through the square is 1.88 × 105 N m2 C−1.
