If I have question in EM at level of "Introduction to Electrodynamics" by David Griffiths, should I post here or in the Introduction to Physics?
Here. Generally problems from lower-division courses belong in the introductory physics forum while problems from upper-division courses belong here.

You're lucky your professor uses Griffiths. Mine uses Reitz, its terrible by comparison. I brought Griffiths to supplement where my book is weak. They do compliment each other though...
for d), I am a bit confused. I have two trains of thoughts here
any thoughts on which answer is correct, and why the other one is incorrect? Both seem like valid solutions to me. Or is the question ambiguous?
thanks
