A total charge of 3.25 uC is distributed uniformly in an insulating square plane of side 10.0 m. Calculate the magnitude of the electric field (in 103 N/C) at a distance of 1.00 mm above the center of the plane. Hint: you may treat the plane as infinitely large at such a small distance above the plane.
