Question

An extremely large but thin uniformly charged plane of surface charge density 1.7×10−9C/m2  lays in the xz -plane and passes through the origin. Also, an extremely long but thin uniformly charged wire of linear charge density 6.1×10−9C/m  lays parallel to the x -axis and passes through ry=  0.72m  and rz=  0m . Finally, a small charged bead of net charge 3.4×10−9C is held at 0.39m  i^+  0.19m  j^+  0m  k^ .

What is the magnitude of the electric field at −0.3m  i^+  0.19m  j^+  0m  k^  due to the charged bead?
