A very long uniform line of charge with charge per unit length λ = +5.00 μC/m lies along the xx-axis, with its midpoint at the origin. A very large uniform sheet of charge is parallel to the xy-plane; the center of the sheet is at z = +0.600 m. The sheet has charge per unit area σ = +8.00 μC/m2, and the center of the sheet is at x=0, y=0.

In the figure an electron (e) is to be released from rest on the central axis of a uniformly charged disk of radius R. The surface charge density on the disk is +4.11 μC/m2. What is the magnitude of the electron's initial acceleration if it is released at a distance (a) R, (b) R/139, and (c) R/1280 from the center of the disk? I just need (b) and (c).
