Answer

$4$

Work Step by Step

The flux through a surface can be defined only when the surface is orientable. We know that $\iint_S F \cdot dS=\iint_S F \cdot n dS$ Here, $n$ denotes the unit vector. Here, $\iint_S F \cdot n dS=\iint_D 2 (u^2-v^2) dA$ $=(2) \int_{0}^{1} \int_0^{2} 2 (u^2-v^2) du dv$ $=(2) \int_{0}^{1} [\dfrac{u^3}{3}-uv^2]_0^2 dv$ $=(2) \int_{0}^{1} \dfrac{2^3}{3}-(2)v^2 dv$ $=2[\dfrac{8}{3}-\dfrac{2}{3}]$ Hence, $Flux=4$
