A thin rod lies along the positivex-axis and has uniform linear charge density λ= +6.0×10−15C/m. Its left end is located at x0= +2.0 m, and its right end extends out to infinity.An electron is placed at the origin and released from rest.Determine the electron’s acceleration immediately after beingreleased. (Hint: this will require building and evaluating anintegral.) In your diagram, make sure to pick out an arbitraryelement of charge along the rod, and indicate the force it exertson the electron. For your limit check, investigate what happensto the electron’s initial acceleration as the left end of the rodis moved closer to the origin (i.e., as x0→0).
