  1. A plastic rod of finite length carries a uniform linear charge Q = 10 μC along the x- axis, with the left edge of the rod at the origin (0, 0) and its right edge at (4, 0) m. All distances are measured in meters.

    1. (a) Determine the net electric field at a
      point P (10,0) m, along the positive x-axis.

    2. (b) Apply integral methods to find the x- and y-components of the electric field vector due to this charged rod at the point P2 (0, 3) m, along the y-axis.

    3. (c) If the right end of the uniformly-charged rod were extended to an infinite distance along the positive x-axis, determine the magnitude and direction of the net electric field at point P(0,3) m.
