Answer:
The force exerted by the charge q on the rod is

Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
- Charge on the rod=Q=2 C
- Length of the rod=L=2.5 m
- magnitude of the point charge q=-10 C
- The distance of the point charge from the right end of the rod d=2 m
We have to find the force exerted by the charge on the rod. this will be equal to the force exerted by the rod on the charge according to coulombs law.
The Electric field due the the rod at the location of the charge is given by

Force between them is given by F
