• The net charge qenc is the
algebraic sum of all the
enclosed positive and negative
charges, and it can be positive,
negative, or zero.
• We include the sign, rather than
just use the magnitude of the
enclosed charge, because the
sign tells us something about
the net flux through the
Gaussian surface:
• If qenc is positive, the net flux
is outward;
• If qenc is negative, the net flux
is inward.

The problem has cylindrical symmetry, and
so as a Gaussian surface we choose a
circular cylinder of radius r and length h,
closed at each end by plane caps normal
to the axis.
