Question

Consider two cylindrical, infinitely long charged rods with linear charge densities of Consider two cylindrical, infinitely long charged rods with linear charge densities of Consider two cylindrical, infinitely long charged rods with linear charge densities of plusminus ? where ? > 0 that lie perpendicular to the plane of the paper. Points A, B, C and D lie in a plane perpendicular to the charged rods. The locations of the points are indicated in the figure in terms of dimensions a and h. (The dashed lines form a rectangular grid.) Consider the line connecting points A and C. What can you say about the potential along this line? Increase, Decrease, or Stay The Same from A to C?
