Question

Use the Gauss Law to find the E- field resulting from the infinite cylinder of radius R=1.2m with the charge density 130 nC/m³ at point P 8 cm from the center of the cylinder.

Take k to be 8.99x10⁹ (Nm²/C²).

In the answer box enter the magnitude of the field to the nearest tenth of the unit.

For full mark, present the full derivation on paper, with diagram of the Gaussian Surface and the full derivation for the field at arbitrary point inside the distribution.
