Solution

The shape of the source charge does not affect the electric flux. Electric flux depends on the orientation of the surface, the magnitude of the electric field, and the area of the surface. However, it does not depend on the shape of the source charge. The electric flux through a surface is defined as the dot product of the electric field and the area vector of the surface. This means it depends on the strength of the electric field, the area of the surface, and the angle between the field lines and the normal to the surface. But the shape of the charge creating the electric field does not directly affect the flux.
