Problem 12

A uniformly charged rod of length 0.600.60 m\(\text{m}\) lies on the xx-axis from x=0x=0 to x=0.60x=0.60 m\(\text{m}\) with λ=4.0\(\lambda\)=4.0 microcoulombs/m. Find the electric field at x=1.00x=1.00 m\(\text{m}\) on the axis. Use k=9.0×109k=9.0\(\times\)10^9 Nm2/C2\(\text{Nm}\)^2\(\text{/C}\)^2.
