(a) Write an expression that gives the magnitude E of the net electric field at points on the x axis given by x = αd. (b) Graph E versus a for the range 0 <α < 4. From the graph, determine the values of α that give (c) the maximum value of E and (d) half the maximum value of E.

A total charge of Q is uniformly distributed along a line, which extends along the x- axis from x=0 to x=L. What is the electric field due to this line of charge at a point P, which is on the x axis at x=a. Your answer should be a symbolic expression that only depends on the variables k, Q, a, and L. What does your expression reduce to when a≫L (far-field limit)?
In the figure below, determine the point (other than infinity) at which the electric field is zero. (Let q, = -1.65
