The length of cylinder is$l=15cm$

The radius of cylinder is $r=5cm$.

The magnitude of incoming electric field on the left side of cylinder is $E_1=1600N/C$.

The magnitude of incoming electric field on the left side of cylinder is $E_2=1000N/C$.

The Gauss law is applied for the cylinder to find the net charge inside the cylinder for incoming and outgoing electric field of cylinder. For this net flux for cylinder is equated to the charge inside surface divided by permittivity of free space.

The surface area of the cylinder is given as:

$A=2\mathrm{Ï€}rl$

Substitute all the values in the above equation.

$$\begin{gathered} A=2\mathrm{Ï€}\left[\left(5\text{cm}\right)\left(\frac{1\text{m}}{100\text{cm}}\right)\right]\left[\left(15\text{cm}\right)\left(\frac{1\text{m}}{100\text{cm}}\right)\right] \\ A=0.0471{\text{m}}^2 \end{gathered}$$

Apply the Gauss’s law to find the amount of charge inside cylinder:

$\left(E_2-E_1\right)A=\frac{q}{{\mathrm{Î\mu }}_0}$

Here, ${\mathrm{Î\mu }}_0$ is the permittivity of box and its value is$8.854×{10}^{-12}{\text{C}}^2/\text{N}·{\text{m}}^2$ .

Substitute all the values in the above equation.

$\begin{array}{rcl}\left(1000\text{N}/\text{C}-1600\text{N}/\text{C}\right)& =& \frac{q}{8.854×{10}^{-12}{\text{C}}^2/\text{N}·{\text{m}}^2}\\ q& =& -5.31×{10}^{-9}\text{C}\\ & & \end{array}$

Therefore, the amount of charge inside the cylinder is $-5.31×{10}^{-9}\text{C}$.
