Consider a region in free space bounded by the surfaces of an imaginary cube having sides of length $a$ as shown in the figure. $A$ charge $+Q$ is placed at the centre $O$ of the cube. $P$ is a point outside the cube such that the line $OP$ perpendicularly intersects the surface $ABCD$ at $R$, and $OR = RP = a/2$. $A$ charge $+Q$ is also placed at point $P$. What is the total electric flux through the five faces of the cube other than $ABCD$?
