The charge per unit length on the thin rod shown below is 2. What is the electric field at the point P? (Hint: Solve this problem by first considering the electric field dE at P due to a small segment dx of the rod, which contains charge dq = 1 dx. Then find the net field by integrating dE over the length of the rod. Use the following as necessary: L, a, à, and ɛn. Enter the magnitude. Assume that i is positive.) P
