Homework Statement
Here is my problem. I don't fully understand Gauss' law so any assistance there would be greatly appreciated
Charge is distributed uniformly throughout the volume of an infinitely long cylinder of radius R = 4.00×10-2 m. The charge density is 1.00×10-2 C/ m3. What is the electric field at r = 2.00×10-2 m?
(in N/C)
