What is flux in the context of fluid flow?
Flux (Φ) represents the volume of fluid passing through a surface per unit time
v= the velocity of the fluid
A is the cross-sectional area.


How does flux change when the surface is tilted at an angle θ?
A′ = the new cross-sectional area


How is flux related to the vector dot product?
A= a vector normal to the surface with a magnitude equal to the area.


How is total flux calculated when velocity varies across a surface?
When velocity is not uniform, the total flux is found by integrating over the surface

What is Gauss’s Law?
Gauss’s Law states that the total electric flux through a closed surface is proportional to the net charge enclosed

What is a Gaussian surface?
A Gaussian surface is an imaginary closed surface used to apply Gauss’s Law.
