Two thin 80.0-cm rods are oriented at right angles to each other. Each rod has one end at the origin of the coordinates, and one of them extends along the +x-axis while the other extends along the +y-axis
The rod along the +x-axis carries a charge of -15.0 µC distributed uniformly along its length, and the other rod carries +15.0 µC uniformly over its length. Find the magnitude and direction of the net electrical force that these two rods exert on an electron located at the point (40.0 cm, 40.0 cm). (e = 1.60 × 10-19 C, ?0 = 8.85 × 10-12 C2/N • m2)
1.35 × 10-13 N at 135° with respect to the +x-axis

The heat conduction equation in cylindrical coordinates is
(a) Simplify this equation by eliminating terms equal to zero for the case of steady-state heat flow
without sources or sinks around a right-angle corner such as the one in the accompanying
sketch. It may be assumed that the corner extends to infinity in the direction perpendicular to
