Gauss's Law
The total of the electric flux out of a closed surface is equal to the charge enclosed divided by the permittivity.
The electric flux through an area is defined as the electric fieldmultiplied by the area of the surface projected in a plane perpendicular to the field. Gauss's Law is a general law applying to any closed surface. It is an important tool since it permits the assessment of the amount of enclosed charge by mapping the field on a surface outside the charge distribution. For geometries of sufficient symmetry, it simplifies the calculation of the electric field.
Another way of visualizing this is to consider a probe of area A which can measure the electric field perpendicular to that area. If it picks any closed surface and steps over that surface, measuring the perpendicular field times its area, it will obtain a measure of the net electric charge within the surface, no matter how that internal charge is configured.
Gauss' Law, Integral Form
The area integral of the electric field over any closed surface is equal to the net charge enclosed in the surface divided by thepermittivity of space. Gauss' law is a form of one of Maxwell'sequations, the four fundamental equations for electricity and magnetism.Gauss' law permits the evaluation of the electric field in many practical situations by forming a symmetric Gaussian surfacesurrounding a charge distribution and evaluating the electric flux through that surface.
Electric Flux
The concept of electric flux is useful in association with Gauss' law. The electric flux through a planar area is defined as theelectric field times the component of the area perpendicular to the field. If the area is not planar, then the evaluation of the flux generally requires an area integral since the angle will be continually changing.
Applications of Gauss' Law
Gauss' law is a powerful tool for the calculation of electric fields when they originate from charge distributions of sufficient symmetry to apply it.
If the charge distribution lacks sufficient symmetry for the application of Gauss' law, then the field must be found by summing the point charge fields of individual charge elements.

Answer:
Explanation:
According to the Gauss law, the total flux linked with a closed surface is 1/ε0 times the charge enclosed by the closed surface.
∮E⃗ .d⃗ s=1∈0q .
According to Gauss Law,
Φ = → E.d → A
Φ = Φcurved + Φtop + Φbottom
Φ = → E . d → A = ∫E . dA cos 0 + ∫E . dA cos 90° + ∫E . dA cos 90°
Φ = ∫E . dA × 1
Due to radial symmetry, the curved surface is equidistant from the line of charge and the electric field in the surface has a constant magnitude throughout.
Φ = ∫E . dA = E ∫dA = E . 2πrl
The net charge enclosed by the surface is:
qnet = λ.l
Using Gauss theorem,
Φ = E × 2πrl = qnet/ε0 = λl/ε0
E × 2πrl = λl/ε0
E = λ/2πrε0
