Question

Potential of a Finite Rod A finite rod of length L has total charge q, distributed uniformly along its length. The rod lies on the x-axis and is centered at the origin. Thus one endpoint is located at (-L/2, 0), and the other is located at (L/2, 0). Define the electric potential to be zero at an infinite distance away from the rod. Throughout this problem, you may use the constant k in place of the expression 1/(4??0). Figure 2 of 2 Part B What is VB, the electric potential at point B, located at distance d from one end of the rod (on the x-axis)? (Figure 2) Give your answer in terms of q, L, d, and k.
