Detailed Solution

Every point on the ring is at a distance of 2R from the point P,

So the electric potential at P is KQ2R

Electric field at a point which is at a distance of x from centre on axis at ring

=KQ×xR2+x232

(for uniformly distributed)

E=KQ3RR2+3R23/2=3KQ8R2But the given ring is non uniformly charged. Hence field can’t be equal to 3KQ8R2
