electrostatics - Electric field at a point on axis of uniformly charged ring using Gauss law


I know we can find out the electric field using the electric field $$E=\frac{KQ}{R^2}$$ taking small element $dq$ and finding the electric field by integrating the value of $dE$ over the circumference which will be $$E=\frac{kxQ}{\sqrt {(a^2+x^2)^3}}$$ where $a$ is radius of ring and $x$ is distance of point $p$ on the axis of the ring. Can we find the same using the Gauss law?

classical mechanics - Moment of a force about a given axis (Torque) - Scalar or vectorial?

I am studying Statics and saw that: The moment of a force about a given axis (or Torque) is defined by the equation: $M_X = (\vec r \times \...
