Homework Statement
The three small spheres shown in the figure below carry charges q1 = 4.30 nC, q2 = -7.70 nC, and q3 = 3.40 nC.
Find the net electric flux through each of the following closed surfaces shown in cross section in the figure.
Homework Equations
\PhiE=\frac{Q_{encl}}{\epsilon_0}
The Attempt at a Solution
Using the above equation, I got the right answers for S1 through S4, but I'm getting the wrong answer for S5:
\PhiE=\frac{Q_{encl}}{\epsilon_0}= \frac{4.30-7.70+3.40}{\epsilon_0}= \frac{0}{\epsilon_0}=0
