							Dear student,Distance of each infinitesimally small charge element on the ring from the given point is$\dpi{80} d=\sqrt{x^2+r^2}$Hence total electric potential at that point=$\dpi{80} V=\dfrac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\dfrac{\int dq}{\sqrt{x^2+r^2}}=\dfrac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\dfrac{\lambda( 2\pi r)}{\sqrt{x^2+r^2}}=\dfrac{\lambda r}{2\epsilon_0\sqrt{x^2+r^2}}$Hence$\dpi{80} E=-\dfrac{dV}{dx}=\dfrac{1}{2}\dfrac{\lambda r}{2\epsilon_0 (x^2+r^2)^{3/2}}.2x=\dfrac{\lambda rx}{2\epsilon_0(x^2+r^2)^{3/2}}$
