A 16-nC charge is distributed uniformly along the x axis from x = 0 to x = 4 m. Write down the integral to calculate the magnitude (in N/C) of the electric field at x = +10 m on the x axis?

The magnitude of the electric field is 2.4 N/C

Explanation:

Given that,

Charge = 16 nC

We need to calculate the charge density

Using formula of charge density

Put the value into the formula

We need to calculate the magnitude of the electric field

Using formula of electric field

On integration

Hence, The magnitude of the electric field is 2.4 N/C
