A thin infinite sheet charge and an infinite line charge of respective charge densities $+\sigma$ and $+\lambda$ are placed parallel at $5\,m$ distance from each other. Points $P$ and $Q$, are at $\frac{3}{\pi} m$ and $\frac{4}{\pi} m$ perpendicular distance from line charge towards sheet charge, respectively. $E_P$ and $E_Q$ are the magnitudes of resultant electric field intensities at point $P$ and $Q$, respectively. If $\frac{E_p}{E_Q}=\frac{4}{a}$ for $2|\sigma|=|\lambda|$. Then the value of $a$ is ...........
