उत्तर
q/2ε0
According to Gauss's Law, the flux through a closed cylindrical Gaussian surface is q/ε0. But the question is about an open cylindrical vessel. Now, take another identical vessel and make a closed Gaussian surface enclosing the charge, as shown in the following figure.

Total flux linked with the closed Gaussian surface,
Ø T =`q/ε_0`
Flux linked with the surface of a open ended cylindrical vessel,
Ø = `(Ø"T")/2 = q/(2ε_0)`
