Question

The figure shows a uniformly charged rod with
length a, carrying a total charge of Q. You need
to derive an expression for the electric field gen-
erated by the rod at point P, which is a distance
d below the left end of the rod.

(a) Redraw the figure and show clearly how you plan
to parametrise the rod. Indicate a general in-
finitesimal segment and include any vectors rele-
vant to your calculation. This figure is an inte-
gral part of your calculation, and should provide
the reader with enough information to be able to
follow your work.

(b) Write down an expression for dE~ , the electric field
generated at point P by an infinitesimal segment.
Ensure that the dependence on the parametrisa-
tion coordinate is explicit in your expression.

(C) Write down an expression for dEx, the x-
component of dE~ , and calculate Ex, the x-
component of the field at point P.

(d) Repeat the steps above to determine the y-
component of the field at point P.
