1. A charged wire (length L) is oriented horizontally. The wire has a positive uniform charge density (the charge is spread out uniformly along the one-dimensional wire). 1. Make a sketch of the wire that shows the location of the charges on the wire. 2. Divide your wire into six equal, point-like pieces. Use superposition to sketch the net electric field at each of the following points. 1. A horizontal distance L from one end of the wire. 2. A vertical distance L from the center of the wire. 3. A vertical distance L from one end of the wire.
