A bar of length ℓ lies on the ?̂-axis with its center at the origin. A proton sits on the ?̂-axis, a height of ℎ above the center of the bar. The bar carries a total charge of ?, which is distributed uniformly along its area.

a. Find the electric field vector experienced by the proton. I ask that you do solve this integral, though you may use any means necessary to do so (yes, including WolframAlpha).

b. Find the electric field vector experienced by the proton if the bar is infinitely long (but still “centered” on the origin).
