The flat base of a hemisphere of radius $a$ with no charge inside it lies in a horizontal plane. $A$ uniform electric field $\vec{E}$ is applied at an angle $\frac{\pi}{4}$ with the vertical direction. The electric flux through the curved surface of the hemisphere is

  • A
    $\pi a^2 E$
  • B
    $\frac{\pi a^2 E}{\sqrt{2}}$
  • C
    $\frac{\pi a^2 E}{2\sqrt{2}}$
  • D
    $\frac{(\pi + 2)\pi a^2 E}{(2\sqrt{2})^2}$
