An infinite sheet of charge with surface charge density σ = −87 μC/m2 lives in the x−y plane. A thin rod of charge with length L = 13.0 cm is placed along the +z-axis so that the end closest to the sheet is located a distance d = 2.0 cm away from the sheet. When held at this position, the linear charge density of the rod can be described by λ = az, where a = +35 nC/m2. What is the force F on the rod from the sheet? For the limit check, investigate what happens to the force as the sheet loses all of its charge (σ→0). Hint: the electric field from an infinite sheet is given by E = σ2ϵ0
