 ===Approximations & Assumptions=== ===Approximations & Assumptions===
-  * The electric field is constant. +There are a few simplifying approximations and assumptions we should make before solving this problem. 
-  * The surface is flat.+  * The electric field is constant: Allows the electric field to be constant through our area which simplifies down the flux equation
 +  * The surface is flat: Allows all the area vectors associated with the surface to point in the same direction.
   * The electric flux through the surface is due only to $\vec{E}$.   * The electric flux through the surface is due only to $\vec{E}$.
