Electrostatic interaction between dipole and charged rod are quite complex. Force on the rod due to dipole can be calculated by integrating the value of force on a small length of rod 'dl' having charge .
A small electric dipole having dipole moment is placed along X-axis, as shown in the figure. A semi-infinite uniformly charged di-electric thin rod  placed along x axis, with one end coinciding with origin. If linear charge density of rod is and distance of dipole from rod is 'a', then calculate the electric force acting on dipole.
