So, there's a tape with width of 2a, -a on the -y and a on the y, and it very long, penetrating the the plane of picture, it's charge density (dQ/dS) is
σ=σ0 * y /a , σ0 is a constant.
What is the electric field in point A(a.0)?
I tried solving this using charged disk, expressing electric field over polar coordinates etc., that is when there's a uniform charge. But I have no idea how to express y using shapes. What to do?
I think you must use the superposition principle of the field in this case, and consider the problem as a distribution of charge along a line from a to -a, because the contribution to the field of the charge along the z axe is 0, the field in this case is always parallel to the surface xy. The problem is to build the right integral considering a dE and a dL (along the y axe).
Note: there is a little mistake, I put r=x^2+y^2 instead r^2=x^2+y^2, I have forgot to put the ^2 on the r, but I have taken into account in the rest of the calculation.
