Question

1) The figure below shows a cross section of two infinite lines of charge that extend out of the page, each having a linear charge density ?. Find an expression for the electric field at the point shown a distance y above the midpoint between the two lines of charge. (k [(16?y)/(4y^2+d^2)]) Lines of charge coming out of the page
