my answer wrong
You Answered Correct Answer A line of charge is placed along the negative x axis from x=-0.4m to x=0. The charge is uniformly distributed with linear charge density 3.06pC/m. A proton is released from rest at a point on the positive x axis 2.53m. When the proton has a speed of 472.1m/s, how far will it have moved (in m}? 1.0975 margin of error +/-1%
Consider a thin, uniformly charged rod of length L with total charge Q and test points A, a distance a from the center of the rod and B a distance b from the rod. В Find the potential difference between A and B first by integrating the point source potential to find V and V and subtracting, and then by integrating the field. Compare the results in the limit of L>>(a and b). To test the far field limit, compare the appropriate result to the case where L is much less than both a and b. You may need to do this one numerically.
