Problem with cartesian coordinates not spherical coordinates

Reference no: EM13541403

A charge q at the origin is at the back corner of an imaginary cube of edge length a. What is the electric flux through the shaded region (the plane at y=a)? (the picture that goes along with it shows a cube, and the side that is shaded is the vertical side furthest from the origin running parallel to the x-axis)Work out the answer in two ways: A) By Gauss's Law B) By direct integration (Hint: set up this problem with cartesian coordinates, not spherical coordinates)
