Find the electric field at the coordinate origin

Reference no: EM13710521

Question: A line charge λ per unit length is formed into a semicicle of radius R (centered on the origin) plus a straight segment of length R parallel to the y-axis that is attached to the left end of the semicircle.

Part A: Find the electric field (magnitude and direction) at the coordinate origin.

Any help I can get on this question is greatly appreciated! I'm not too familiar with this question.
