Explanation:
It is given that,
Force applied to object,
Position,
(b) The cross product of force and position vector is used to find the net torque about the z axis. It is given by :
or
The torque is acting in -z axis.
(a) The magnitude of torque is given by :
Hence, this is the required solution.
Explanation:
it is given that, the linear charge density of a charge,
Firstly, we can define the electric field for a small element and then integrate for the whole. The very small electric field is given by :
..........(1)
The linear charge density is given by :
Integrating equation (1) from x = x₀ to x = infinity
Hence, this is the required solution.
