The electric field of a line of charge can be found by superposing the point charge
fields of infinitesmal charge elements. The radial part of the field from a charge
element is given by
potential
Potential of Line Charge
The potential of a line of charge can be found by superposing the point charge
potentials of infinitesmal charge elements. It is an example of a continuous
charge distribution.
In this form it could be used as a charge element for the determining of the
potential of a disc of charge.
Potential for Disc of Charge
The potential of a disc of charge can be found by superposing the point charge
potentials of infinitesmal charge elements. It is an example of a continuous
charge distribution. The evaluation of the potential can be facilitated by
summing the potentials of charged rings. The integral over the charged disc
takes the form:
