Be very careful with the angle in the magnetic flux formula. \(\theta\) is the angle between the B-field and the *normal* to the area, not the plane of the area itself.
- If the plane is parallel to the field, \(\theta = 90^\circ\), and flux is zero.
- If the plane is perpendicular to the field, \(\theta = 0^\circ\), and flux is maximum (\(NBA\)).
