In spherical coordinates, the electrical field of a chargedistribution is given by E = Be^(-r/Z) r-hat, where the lengthscale Z is a positive number and B is a constant. Calculate thepotential as a function of r, assuming V --> 0 as r -->∞. Calculate the charge density ρ as a function of r,and determine the total energy associated with this charge distribution.
