Answer

1.08 mWb

Work Step by Step

Magnetic flux along the flat top face: $\Phi_{1}=BA=0.30\,T\times\pi(2.0\times10^{-2}\,m)^{2}$ $=0.38\,mWb$ Magnetic flux along the flat bottom face: $\Phi_{2}=0.70\,mWb$ (given) Since both $\Phi_{1}$ and $\Phi_{2}$ are directed outwards, both are taken as positive. Magnetic flux through the curved part of the surface: Let it be denoted by $\Phi_{curved}$. Then According to Gauss's law, $\Phi_{1}+\Phi_{2}+\Phi_{curved}=0$ $\implies \Phi_{curved}=0-\Phi_{1}-\Phi_{2}$ $=0-0.38\,mWb-0.70\,mWb=-1.08\,mWb$ Magnitude= 1.08 mWb
