You have a very (infinitely) long solid conducting cylinder with length L, base radius R, and total charge +Q. (a) Use Gauss’s law to find the electric field vector inside and outside the cylinder. Explain your reasoning. You can give a verbal description of the electric field vector direction. (b) Similar to how we found the electric field outside a conducting sphere to look like that of a point particle, what does the electric field outside the cylinder look like? (c) Would the electric field inside the cylinder stay the same if the cylinder was instead insulating and uniformly charged? Explain why or why not?

A thin rod of length, L, is placed on the +x axis with its left end on the origin (0,0) as show in the diagram to the right. The rod has a charge +Qspread uniformly along its length. The point P is on the x axis a distance r from the origin. a.Set up the integral to find the electric field at point P.Clearly show your steps. b.Compute the electric field at point P.

The angle between the two short sides is 90°. The two short sides of the triangle have length a. Investigate the net force on the charge (q) in the lower right corner due to the other two charges (q, -q). As needed, assume a right-handed coordinate system shown below: (A) What is the magnitude of the net force on the charge in the lower right corner due to the other charges? Use symbols for the answer. (B) Make a sketch of the net force vector on the x-y axes below with the tail of the arrow at the origin. Label the angle with the x-axis. What quadrant does the vector lie in? Your picture should indicate the correct quadrant.
