Figure 24.22B shows a very narrow rod of length L with excess positive charge Q. The rod is so narrow compared to its length that its radius is negligible and the rod is essentially one-dimensional.

Determine the electric field at the midpoint O of the diameter.arrow_forwardOften we have distributions of charge for which integrating to find the electric field may not be possible in practice. In such cases, we may be able to get a good approximate solution by dividing the distribution into small but finite particles and taking the vector sum of the contributions of each. To see how this might work, consider a very thin rod of length L = 16 cm with uniform linear charge density = 50.0 nC/m. Estimate the magnitude of the electric field at a point P a distance d = 8.0 cm from the end of the rod by dividing it into n segments of equal length as illustrated in Figure P24.21 for n = 4. Treat each segment as a particle whose distance from point P is measured from its center. Find estimates of EP for n = 1, 2, 4, and 8 segments. FIGURE P24.21arrow_forward
