Question: Let D D be the annular region 2 2 , a r b 2


Let D be the annular region
π2θπ2,arb
where b>a>0. Assume that D has a uniform charge distribution of ρ coulombs per square meter. Let F be the net force on a charged particle of charge Q coulombs located at the origin (by symmetry, F acts along the x-axis).
(a) Argue as in Exercise 59 to show that
F=kρQθ=π/2π/2r=ab(cosθr2)rdrdθ
(b) Compute F.
