Please provide steps, thank you

A uniform line charge of linear charge density lambda = 4.3 nC/m extends from x = 0 to x = 5 m.

a. Find the electric field on the x axis at x = 6 m. (N/C)

b. Find the electric field on the x axis at x = 280 m. (N/C)

c. Find the field at x = 280 m, using the approximation that the charge is a point charge at the origin. (N/C)

Compare your result with that for the exact calculation in part (b). (field for the point charge divided by the field for the line charge)
