Question: A plastic rod with linear charge density is bent into the quarter circle shown in FIGURE P23.48. We want to find the electric field
A plastic rod with linear charge density λ is bent into the quarter circle shown in FIGURE P23.48. We want to find the electric field at the origin.
a. Write expressions for the x-and y-components of the electric field at the origin due to a small piece of charge at angle θ.b. Write, but do not evaluate, definite integrals for the x-and y-components of the net electric field at the origin.c. Evaluate the integrals and write Enet in component form.
