$A$ point charge $q = 1 \mu C$ is located at a distance $2 \text{ cm}$ from one end of a thin insulating wire of length $L = 10 \text{ cm}$ having a charge $Q = 24 \mu C$, distributed uniformly along its length, as shown in the figure. The force between $q$ and the wire is . . . . . . $N$. (Use $\frac{1}{4 \pi \epsilon_0} = 9 \times 10^9 \text{ N} \cdot \text{m}^2 / \text{C}^2$)

Each of two large conducting parallel plates has one-sided surface area $A$. If one of the plates is given a charge $Q$ whereas the other is neutral,then the electric field at a point in between the plates is given by
