Question
I need the answer as soon as possible
rts A and B pls
2. Inverted cone of charge
(0,0,h)
(R.0,0)
P(0,0,-h)
(a) Consider an inverted cone with its altitude being h and its base having radius R which
sits on ry plane as shown in the figure. This cone has a uniform surface charge o on the
curved surface. Find the electric fields at the point P (0,0,-h) and the origin O (0,0, 0).
Hint: Use the superposition principle by stacking thin rings of charge with varying radius
along the z-direction to form an inverted cone. Note that the electric field from a ring of
charge is derived from the question 1 above. You need to integrate each contribution from
a charged ring to find the electric field.
Note: You can use Wolfram Alpha to perform the integrals. Please indicate it in your
solutions if you have used it.
(b) Now find the electric fields at the point P and the origin O as R becomes infinite while h
remains finite? Interpret the results from this limiting case in your own words.
