[UPSC CSE 2024] Electrostatics and Magnetostatics (Q21, 15M)

Using Maxwell's equations, obtain Poisson's equation and Laplace's equation. The region -\frac{\pi}{2} < \frac{z}{z_0} < \frac{\pi}{2} has a charge density \rho = 10^{-8} \cos \left( \frac{z}{z_0} \right) (\text{C/m}^3). Elsewhere the charge density is zero. Find the electric potential V and electric field E from the Poisson's equation.
