An electron revolves around an infinite cylindrical wire having a uniform linear charge density of $2 \times 10^{-8} \, C \cdot m^{-1}$ in a circular path under the influence of an attractive electrostatic field,as shown in the figure. The velocity of the electron with which it is revolving is $......... \times 10^6 \, m \cdot s^{-1}$. (Given: mass of electron $= 9 \times 10^{-31} \, kg$)

$(a)$ Show that the normal component of the electrostatic field has a discontinuity from one side of a charged surface to another given by $(E_2 - E_1) \cdot \hat{n} = \frac{\sigma}{\varepsilon_0}$, where $\hat{n}$ is a unit vector normal to the surface at a point and $\sigma$ is the surface charge density at that point. (The direction of $\hat{n}$ is from side $1$ to side $2$.) Hence, show that just outside a conductor, the electric field is $\frac{\sigma \hat{n}}{\varepsilon_0}$. $(b)$ Show that the tangential component of the electrostatic field is continuous from one side of a charged surface to another.
