2.1.4 Continuous Charge Distribution
Introduction
The fundamental problem for electromagnetic to solve is to
calculate the interaction of charges in a given configuration.
That  is, what force do they exert on another charge Q ?
The simplest case is that the source  charges are stationary.
Principle of  Superposition:
The interaction between any two charges is completely unaffected
by the presence of other charges.
