Solution

The correct option is B 25Nm2/C
flux is the dot product between the area vector and the field vector.
Area vector is perpendicular to the surface. If the surface makes an angle 30o with the YZ_plane, then the angle between the area vector and field vector will be 60o
So, flux =EAcos60=50×12=25
