    Non uniform charge density and electric potential

    ok, so the integral for dv would be from 0 to 3.59 because you're integrating to the potential at A?

    Non uniform charge density and electric potential

    i know that you have to integrate dq over the rod, what I'm saying is what do you integrate dv over?

    Non uniform charge density and electric potential

    ok, so then in the last integral you will have a ln, but would that be the same that you integrate over?

    Non uniform charge density and electric potential

    wait so then what would be the values for the r? cause i have been using just 3.95 since that's the distance of your point away from the rod but it doesn't work

    Non uniform charge density and electric potential

    As shown in the figure, a rod of length 9.8 m lies along the x-axis, with its left end at the origin. The rod has a non-uniform linear charge density λ = αx, where α = 0.009 C/m2 and x is the position. Point A lies on the x-axis a distance 3.59 m to the left of the rod, as shown in the figure...
