1.Charge, Q= 2.20nC is uniformly distributed along the thin rodof length, L= 1.20m shown above.
a.Determine the linear charge density of the rod.
b.Determine an expression for charge dqon an infinitesimally small section of the rod of length dxin terms of the charge density and dx.
c.The point P1is located a distance a= 0.300m from the end of the rod. Determine an expression for the distance, rbetween the point P1and an arbitrary chunk of the rod located an arbitrary distance xfrom the origin (between 0 and L).
d.Determine an expression for the electric field dEat P1due to only the arbitrary chunk of the rod from part c. Use k, λ, x, L, and a.
e.Determine the net electric field, Eat a point P1due to the entire rod.
