A uniform line charge of linear charge densitylambda=3.6nC/m extends fromx= 0 tox= 5 m

(a) What is the total charge?___nC

(b) Find the electric field on thexaxis atx= 6 m.___N/C

(c) Find the electric field on thexaxis atx=11m.___N/C

(d) Find the electric field on thexaxis atx=300m___N/C

(e) Find the field atx=300m, using the approximation that the charge is a point charge at the origin.___N/C

Compare your result with that for the exact calculation in part (d),(field for the point charge divided by the field for the line charge).___
