As we learnt ,

 

Electric Field at a point P lies inside the Cylinder -

E_{in}=0 for conducting cylinder

E_{in}=\frac{\lambda r}{2\pi \varepsilon _{0}R^{2}} for non-conducting cylinder

-

 

 

E =\frac{\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon _{o}R}       but r =\frac{R}{2}

E = 0 inside if r = R    \frac{\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon _{o}R}

 


Option 1)

\frac{\lambda}{4 \pi \epsilon _{o}R}

Option 2)

\frac{\lambda}{ \pi \epsilon _{o}R}

Option 3)

0

Option 4)

\frac{2K\lambda}{R^{2}}
