A thin, non-conducting rod is in the shape of asemicircle of radius R. It has a varying positivecharge per unit length described byλ=|λ0sin 2θ|. λ0is a constant and θ is definedin the standard way with θ=0 along the positivex-axis.a. Make a graph of λ vs θ. Then sketch thecharge distribution along the semicircle.The main point is to consider thesymmetry of this distribution.

Suppose a capacitor consists of two coaxial thin cylindrical conductors. The inner cylinder of radius ra has a charge of +Q, while the outer cylinder of radius rb has charge -Q. The electric field E at a radial distance r from the central axis is given by the function:
E = αe-r/a0 + β/r + b0
where alpha (α), beta (β), a0 and b0 are constants. Find an expression for its capacitance.
First, let us derive the potential difference Vab between the two conductors. The potential difference is related to the electric field by:
V subscript a b end subscript equals integral subscript r subscript a end subscript superscript r subscript b end superscript E d r equals negative integral subscript r subscript b end subscript superscript r subscript a end superscript E d r
