Answer

$\dfrac{\sqrt {2}}{10}$

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. Since, $\iint_S F \cdot dS =\int_{0}^1 \int_{0}^{\pi/2} u^3 \sin v \cos v \times \sqrt 2 u dA$ $=\sqrt {2} \times \int_{0}^1 u^4 du \times \int_{0}^{\pi/2} \sin v \cos v dv$ $=\sqrt {2} \times [\dfrac{u^5}{5}] \times (\sin^2 v/2]_0^{\pi/2}$ $=\sqrt {2} \times (1/5) \times (1/2)$ $=\dfrac{\sqrt {2}}{10}$
