Answer
226

Explanation

Given, charge, q = 12 $$\mu$$C = 12 $$\times$$ 10$$-$$6C

Height of charge from surface, h = 6 cm = 6 $$\times$$ 10$$-$$2 m and side of square, a = 12 cm = 12 $$\times$$ 10$$-$$2 m

Using Gauss law, it is a part of cube of side 12 cm and charge at centre so;

$$\phi = {Q \over {6{\varepsilon _0}}} = {{12\mu c} \over {6{\varepsilon _0}}} = 2 \times 4\pi \times 9 \times {10^9} \times {10^{ - 6}}$$

$$ = 226 \times {10^3}$$ Nm2 / C
