someone with a membership that can answer this question about electric fields, please Urgent!
Course Textbook Chapter Problem
Calculus Based Physics Fundamentals of Physics Extended (8th) by Resnick, Halliday, Walker 23 32P
Question Details:

A long, nonconducting, solid cylinder of radius R has a nonuniform volume charge density ρ that is a function of radial distance r from the cylinder axis: ρ = Ar2. Where A is a constant with the appropriate units. What is the magnitude of the electric field at radius r where (a)r < R and (b)r > R. State your answers in terms of the given variables, using ε0 when needed.

Response:
 
is the volume density of charge
cylinder of radius r is the Gaussian surface
' where q is the enclosed charge
is area of cylindrical surface
E is electric field
is permitivity constant
  is the volume of cylinder of length L
then charge enclosed q =
and  is surface area
= when r < R
 when r > R

Response:
There is a possibility if
charge density
when r >R the electric field
when r < R the electric field
