A friend did the first part for me, but im not sure how he did it.
Also not sure how to calculate the x and y components
Lambda (no idea how to type the symbol here) simply tells you charge per length. Literally just take the length of the arc and divide by the charge.
3.6 x 10^-6 divided by er...wait a second, gotta find the length don't we!
if radius is .06 m (notice i had to convert), the circumfrence of the whole circle would be 2*pi*.06 = 0.37699 meters
so divide it by four and boom, you get the length of that quarter circle, which is .0942478 m
So charge per length.....
3.6 x 10^-6 divided by .0942478 = 0.000038 coulumbs/meter.......better written as 3.8 x 10^-5 IMO
