Find the electric field at point P (as shown in figure) on the perpendicular bisector of a uniformly charged thin wire of length $\displaystyle L$ carrying a charge $\displaystyle Q$. The distance of the point $\displaystyle P$ from the centre of the rod is $\displaystyle \mathrm{a}=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \mathrm{~L}$.

Official answer
(4)
$\displaystyle \frac{\mathrm{Q}}{2 \sqrt{3} \pi \varepsilon_0 \mathrm{~L}^2}$
