A long cylindrical volume (of radius R) contains a uniformly distributed charge of density `rho`. Consider a point P inside the cylindrical volume at a distance x from its axis as shown in the figure. Here x can be more than or less than R. Electric field at point P is :

A

`(rho x)/(2 epsi_(0))` if `x lt R`

B

`(rho x)/epsi_(0)` if `x lt R`

C

`(rho R^(2))/(4 epsi_(0) x)` if `x gt R`

D

`(rho R^(2))/(2 epsi_(0) x)` if `x gt R`
