Problem 2.25 Using Eqs. 2.27 and 2.30, find the potential at a distance z above the center of the charge distributions in Fig. 2.34. In each case, compute E =-V,

and compare your answers with Ex. 2.1, Ex. 2.2, and Prob. 2.6, respectively. Suppose that we changed the right-hand charge in Fig. 2.34a to -q; what then is the potential at P? What field does that suggest? Compare your answer to Prob. 2.2, and explain carefully any discrepancy.
