The flux through the hemispherical surface

In summary, the conversation discusses the flux through a hemispherical surface in a uniform electric field. The answer is expressed in terms of the given facts and the concept of surface area is also clarified. The flux through the disk is found to be equal to π*R2*E and the total flux through the hemisphere is determined using Gauss' law. The concept of surface area is further explained by using the example of a closed 3D region and a cube.

Oh!understood.Even when you say/write something straight forward I tend to take it logically or sarcastically to be more precise.
