Question

Consider a rod of length L carrying a charge of q distributed uniformly over its length. Where applicable, let V(r→∞)=0.

a) What is the voltage V at point P (at distance a away from the near end of the rod) due to the charge over the length of the rod? Express your answer in terms of given parameters (L,q,a) and physical constants

b) Calculate the electric field at point P by differentiating V with respect to a. Let positive sign of E indicate direction of electric field pointing away from the rod.
