Two identical thin rods of length L are each charged with a positive charge q that is uniformly distributed on each rod. The rods are arranged parallel to each other along the x direction and are separated by a distance 2d, as shown in the figure below. Determine the electric field at point P, which is located a distance d from the right endpoint of each rod. Hint: You will eventually need the following integral: u 1 √(a²+²)³/² du = +C √a²+u² Answer: 2kg (= -√²+12) î ==
