A very long cylindrical rod of nonconducting material with a 3-cm radius is given a uniformly distributed positive charge of 6.00 nC per centimeter of its length. Then a cylindrical cavity is dolled all the way through the rod. of radius 1 cm, with its axis located 1.5 cm from the axis of the rod. That is if at some cross section or the roe a- arid y-axes are placed so that the center of the rod is at (xy) = (0,0); then the center of the cylindrical cavity is at (x.y)= (0,15). The creation of the cavity does not disturb the charge on the remainder of the rod that has not been drilled away; it just removes the charge from the regal in the cavity. Find the electric field at the point (x,y) = (2,1).
