2. A thin, semi-infinite wire with a constant linear charge density A

2. A thin, semi-infinite wire with a constant linear charge density A extends from -00 < x < 0. A point charge q is placed at a position x = a with a > 0. Find an expression for the magnitude of the force on q from the wire using Coulomb's law for charge distributions. x = a x
