A New Method for Solving Electrostatics Problems
Alexander Natanzon; Evgeny Frishman
European Journal of Physics Education, v12 n4 p38-44 2021
In this article we show that the electrostatic field intensity of a uniformly charged straight line equals that of the corresponding arc of a circle charged with the same linear density. This new method greatly simplifies the calculation of the electrostatic field of a system consisting of uniformly charged straight lines.
