The electric field at a point on the perpendicular bisector of a charged rod was calculated as the first example of a continuous charge distribution, resulting in Equation 24.15:E=kQy12+y2j a. Find an expression for the electric field when the rod is infinitely long. b. An infinitely long rod with uniform linear charge density also contains an infinite amount of charge. Explain why this still produces an electric field near the rod that is finite.
