Electric Flux

Why electric flux due to charge outside the gaussian surface is zero. i know 2 explanations, 1. Qinside/ε₀ = 0 as there isn't any charge inside the gaussian surface. 2. Jitni Field lines enter kar rahi hain, utni hi exit kar rahi so flux total = 0 But can someone please explain if we try integrating E.dA vector, we get 0 for charge outside. integrate karke zero kaise aaega?

You'd need to look up a proof of the Gauss Divergence Theorem If you're fine with vector calculus, I can share one

There's multiple parts This is gonna be overkill though You can also find it here. https://www.feynmanlectures.caltech.edu/II_03.html
