Introduction
To find the exact solution of Einstein’s field equations is difficult due to its non-linear nature. A large number of exact solutions of Einstein’s field equations in literature but not all of them are physically relevant. A comprehensive collection of static, spherically symmetric solutions are found in.1,2 A large collection of models of stellar objects incorporating charge can be found in literature.3 Proposed that a fluid sphere of uniform density with a net surface charge is more stable than without charge. An interesting observation of4 is that in the presence of charge, the gravitational collapse of a spherically symmetric distribution of matter to a point singularity may be avoided. Charged anisotropic matter with linear equation of state is discussed by.5,6 Found that the solutions of Einstein-Maxwell system of equations are important to study the cosmic censorship hypothesis and the formation of naked singularities. The presence of charge affects the values for redshifts, luminosities, and maximum mass for stars. Charged perfect fluid sphere satisfying a linear equation of state was discussed by.7 Regular models with quadratic equation of state were discussed by.8 They obtained exact and physically reasonable solution of Einstein-Maxwell system of equations. Their model is well behaved and regular. In particular there is no singularity in the proper charge density.9 Considered a self gravitating, charged and anisotropic fluid sphere. To solve Einstein-Maxwell field equation they have assumed both linear and nonlinear equation of state and discussed the result analytically.10 Extend the work of5 by considering quadratic equation of state for the matter distribution to study the general situation of a compact relativistic body in presence of electromagnetic field and anisotropy.
Ruderman R11 investigated that for highly compact astrophysical objects like X-ray pulsar, Her-X-1, X-ray buster 4U 1820-30, millisecond pulsar SAX J 1804.4-3658, PSR J1614-2230, LMC X-4 etc. having core density beyond the nuclear density
there can be pressure anisotropy, i.e, the pressure inside these compact objects can be decomposed into two parts radial pressure
and transverse pressure

is called the anisotropic factor which measures the anisotropy. The reason behind these anisotropic nature are the existence of solid core, in presence of type 3A super fluid,12 phase transition,13 pion condensation,14 rotation, magnetic field, mixture of two fluid, existence of external field etc. Local anisotropy in self gravitating systems was studied by.15,16 Demonstrated that pressure anisotropy affects the physical properties, stability and structure of stellar matter. Relativistic stellar model admitting a quadratic equation of state was proposed by17 in finch-skea space-time.18 Has generalized earlier work in modified Finch-Skea spacetime by incorporating a dimensionless parameter n. In a very recent work19 obtained a new model of an anisotropic super dense star which admits conformal motions in the presence of a quintessence field which is characterized by a parameter
with
. The model has been developed by choosing ansatz.20,21 Have studied the behavior of static spherically symmetric relativistic objects with locally anisotropic matter distribution considering the Tolman VII form for the gravitational potential
in curvature coordinates together with the linear relation between the energy density and the radial pressure.
Charged anisotropic star on paraboloidal space-time was studied by.22,23 Studied anisotropic star on pseudo-spheroidal space time. Charged anisotropic star on pseudo-spheroidal space time was studied by.24 The study of compact stars having Matese and Whitman mass function was carried out by.25 Motivated by these earlier works in the present paper we develop a model of compact star by incorporating charge. Our paper is organized as follows: In section 2, interior space time and the Einstein-Maxwell system is discussed. Section 3 deals with solution of field equations. Section 4 contains exterior space time and matching conditions. Physical analysis of the model is discussed in section 5. Section 6 contains conclusion.
Interior spacetime
We consider the static spherically symmetric spacetime metric as,
Where v and

, which subsequently reduces to
The field equations given by (2) are now equivalent to the following set of the non-linear ODE’s
Where we have taken
Solution of field equations
To solve the above set of equations (13)-(15) we take the mass function of the form
Where ‘a’ and ‘b’ are two positive constants. The mass function given in (19) is known as Matese & Whitman26 mass function that gives a monotonic decreasing matter density which was used by27 to model an anisotropic fluid star,28 to develop a model of dark energy star,29 to model a class of relativistic stars with a linear equation of state and30 to model a charged anisotropic matter with linear equation of state.
Using the relationship
and equation (19) we get,
From equation (13) and (20) we obtain
We choose
of the form
Which is regular at the center of the star. Substituting the expression of
into (21) we get,
To integrate the equation (14) we take radial pressure of the form,
Where
is a positive constant, the choice of
is reasonable due to the fact that it is monotonic decreasing function of ‘r’ and the radial pressure vanishes at
which gives the radius of the star.
From (24) and (14) we get,
Integrating we get,
Where C is constant of integration, and the space time metric in the interior is given by
From (14), (15) and (18), we have
Where,

From (18) we obtain,

Exterior space time and matching condition
We match our interior space time (27) to the exterior Reissner-Nordström space time at the boundary
(where
is the radius of the star.). The exterior space time is given by the line element
By using the continuity of the metric potential
and
at the boundary
we get,
The radial pressure should vanish at the boundary of the star, hence from equation (24) we obtain
Using (33) & (19) we obtain
We compute the values of ‘a’ and ‘b’ for different compact stars which is given in Table 1.

Physical analysis
To be a physically acceptable model matter density

For an anisotropic fluid sphere all the energy conditions namely Weak Energy Condition (WEC), Null Energy Condition (NEC), Strong Energy Condition (SEC) and Dominant Energy Condition (DEC) are satisfied if and only if the following inequalities hold simultaneously in every point inside the fluid sphere.
Due to the complexity of the expression of
