Correct option is A)
σ>0
Electric field intensity on the axis at the point from which =Ω angle.
Electric field near on infinite plane of uniform charge density.
A much more important limit of the above result is actually for x much less than P. In this case, it is as through the disk were of infinite extent. So, the result correspond simply to the electric field near on infinite shell of these.
