Question

Calculate the magnitude and direction of the electric field (in N/C) 2.2 m from a long wire that is charged uniformly at λ = 3.6 ✕ 10−6 C/m. (Assume the wire goes through the origin and the point in question is located on the +z-axis. Express your answer in vector form.).

Answer 1

29.5*10^3 k N/C

Step-by-step explanation:

Using

E = λ/2πEor x k

So = 18*10^9 x 3.6 ✕ 10−6 / 2.2 x k

= 29.5*10^3 k N/C
