As shown in figure if two charges each having same magntiude q are symmetrically placed on a horizontal line at A and B with respect to P so that distance l between point p to the horizontal line is same as the distance l between each charge to the centre of charges on the line AB.
Resultant field in the direction perpendicular to line AB is given by
where K = 1/() is coulomb constant
when five equal charges q/5 is symmetrically placed on the line AB then electric field E1 is given by
..............................(1)
If charge is distributed uniformly , exact electric field E is given by

Second question
Electric field E due to charge q
Above field has direction along the line connecting charge q and point A. Hence this field can be written in vector form as
where is the angle made by field vector with y-axis. Hence above expression can be written as
Similarly we can write electric field E2 due to charge q as
Hence total electric field is given by

Often we have distributions of charge for which integrating to find the electric field may not be possible in practice. In such cases, we may be able to get a good approximate solution by dividing the distribution into small but finite particles and taking the vector sum of the contributions of each. To see how this might work, consider a very thin rod of length -12 cm with uniform linear charge density λ=32.0 nC/m. Estimate the magnitude of the electric...
