In Figure a semi-infinite non-conducting rod (that is, infinite in one direction only) has uniform linear charge
Question:
In Figure a "semi-infinite" non-conducting rod (that is, infinite in one direction only) has uniform linear charge density λ, Show that the electric field Ep at point P makes an angle of 45o with the rod and that this result is independent of the distance R.

I have done job as Embedded System Engineer for just four months but after it i have decided to open my own lab and to work on projects that i can launch my own product in market. I work on different softwares like Proteus, Mikroc to program Embedded Systems. My basic work is on Embedded Systems. I have skills in Autocad, Proteus, C++, C programming and i love to share these skills to other to enhance my knowledge too.
