Question

Electric field due to an infinitely long straight uniformly charged wire derivation

Answer 1

I'm leaving a link in a comment.

Answer 2

Consider a uniformly charged infinitely long thin wire of surface charge density lambda. We wish to find its electric field at a distance of r from it.Now at the top and bottom phases of cylinder i.e. its base and top E and dS are perpendicular to each other hence it does not contributes to electric flux
