This section will summarize the electric potentials that result from some common geometries of charge distribution, including a finite line, ring, disk, and infinite line.

In this section, we present another application – the electric field due to an infinite line of charge. The result serves as a useful “building block” in a number of other problems, including determination of the capacitance of coaxial cable.
