Question

1. Charge, Q= 2.20nC is uniformly distributed along the thin rod of length, L= 1.20m shown below.

a. Determine an expression for the electric field dE at P1 due to only the arbitrary chunk of the rod. Use k, λ, x, L, and a.

b. Determine the net electric field, E at a point P1 due to the entire rod.

c. Repeat the steps above to determine the x and y components of the net electric field at a point P2 a height, y= 0.400m above the point P1.

d. Find the magnitude and angle (counterclockwise from the +x direction) of the net electric field at the point P2 due to the entire rod.
