An infinitely long solid cylinder of radius $R$ has a uniform volume charge density $\rho$. It has a spherical cavity of radius $R/2$ with its centre on the axis of the cylinder,as shown in the figure. The magnitude of the electric field at the point $P$,which is at a distance $2R$ from the axis of the cylinder,is given by the expression $\frac{23 \rho R}{16 k \varepsilon_0}$. The value of $k$ is
