Question

Three nonconducting strips are bent to form arcs and, when assembled, they form part of a circle of radius r = 6.37 cm. The three strips have linear charge densities of 𝜆1 = 89.0 nC/m, 𝜆2 = −179 nC/m, and 𝜆3 = 268 nC/m, respectively, and subtend angles of 60°, 120°, and 45°, respectively, at the center.
