A rod (length = 2.0 m) is uniformly charged and has a total charge of 5.0 nC. What is the electric potential (relative to zero at infinity) at a point which lies along the axis of the rod and is 3.0 m from the center of the rod?
 a. 22 V
  b. 19 V
  c. 16 V
  d. 25 V
  e. 12 V

Question 2

A nonuniform linear charge distribution given by l(x) = bx, where b is a constant, is distributed along the x axis from x = 0 to x = +L. If b = 40 nC/m2 and L = 0.20 m, what is the electric potential (relative to a potential of zero at infinity) at the point y = 2L on the y axis?
 a. 19 V
  b. 17 V
  c. 21 V
  d. 23 V
  e. 14 V
