Consider a nonconducting rod that would make a great wire except for the fact that it is nonconducting. The not-quite-a-wire has length 1.1 m and total charge 6 ?C. The charge density along the wire is constant. Denote the density as ?.
a) Find the value of the constant?.
b) Find the electric field strength at a point on the axis of the rod, a distance x = 5.0 m past the end of the rod.
