Yes, I agree. And the arc length comes out nice.

I don't understand why you say that "dEx is Rcosθ distance away". Both dE and dEx are associated with the same point, namely the...

Your answer is wrong because you can't get the x-component dEx by replacing R in the denominator of dE by Rcosθ. Note that Rcosθ < R...

No. Let's forget dEx for now. Just concentrate on dE. dE is the magnitude of the electric field vector dE at the origin O produced...

What was your reason for writing the denominator of the integrand as ##(R\cos \theta)^2##? This is not correct. To find ##E_x## due to...

For the element of charge ##dQ## shown, how would you write an expression for ##dE## at the origin? How would you write the x-component...

The vertical side of each triangle is the y-component of the velocity, which remains constant in time. The horizontal side is the...

Hmm yes it seems to me that as the x velocity becomes large that one must imagine this as zooming out on the diagram in such case the y...

In that scenario, the component of velocity in the y direction remains constant. It would not reduce to zero.
