variable charge density

a large non uniformly charged slab of thickness d is placed in the yz plane as shown. its charge density rho varies as rho=ax^2 C/m^3 . find electric field at (l,0) i. l > d ii. l < d

some1 pls confirm

the slab is infinite and charge density varies only in x direction and is constant in y and z? ts should be correct i verified by triple integration

Yeppp Alrr , same is the result given in phy galaxy But couldn't find the result for l<d

divide the slab into two portions one applies field to the right and other to the left for one you need to integrate from 0 to L and for other, from L to d and then subtract the two L^3 - (d^3-L^3)
