I have this problem which I am stuck on: Find an expression for the electric field at point P as in this figure
P
|

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
<----------------------L-------------------------------->
Where the distance from P to the positive charged rod is Y.
All i know is that you need to break the positive charged rod into little differentials such as dL and integrate something like this -
Ey = (integrate)-L to +L Q/(4pi Epsilon(o) d^2)dq
However i am not sure about the X components and how taht is calculated, please help.
