(a) The above figure (a) shows a nonconducting rod of length $$L=6.00 \ cm$$ and uniform linear charge density $$\lambda = +3.68 \ pC/m$$. Assume that the electric potential is defined to be $$V=0$$ at infinity. What is $$V$$ at point $$P$$ at distance $$d=8.00 \ cm$$ along the rod's perpendicular bisector? (b) Figure (b) shows an identical rod except that one half is now negatively charged. Both halves have a linear charge density of magnitude $$3.68 \ pC/m$$. With $$V=0$$ at infinity, what is $$V$$ at $$P$$?

In figure semi infinite nonconducting rod (that is infinite in one direction only) has uniform linear charge density $$\lambda$$. Show that the electric field $$\vec E_{P}$$ at point $$P$$Makes an angle of $$45^o$$ with the rod and that this result is independent of the distance $$R$$. Separately find the compound of $$\vec E_{P}$$ parallel to the rod and the compound perpendicular to the rod.
