Answer:
a. b- x= y
dx = -dy
b. F = 
c. F = 
Explanation:
a. x components:

= 
Integrating and solving gives:
b- x= y
dx = -dy
b. the force is given by the equation derived from (a.):
F = 
c. Given that r>>a, the expression becomes:
F = 
Explanation:
When the size of the charge distribution is less than the distance to the deviation point of the charge then the charge distribution would produce the same effect such as a linear charge.
Answer:2.47
Explanation: did the math
If iron were used to make coins then it would rust easily,because of its exposure to water, air etc..
You're most likely to build up enough static charge to receive a shock by walking around in a carpeted restaurant in the desert. (A)
Walking on carpet is the fastest way to accumulate charge, and the dry desert air prevents the charge from dribbling off of you and away.
When I walked on stones in the Sinai Desert, the dry wind with a little bit of sand or dust in it built up enough static charge on me that I got a shock every time I stood less than a foot away from my partner.
I had the same experience a few years later near Ouarzazate in the interior of Morocco.
When you hear people say "the desert is dry", they mean it's <em>DRY ! </em>
