PhysicsElectric Charges and FieldsNEET 2019

Two parallel infinite line charges with linear charge densities C/m and C/m are placed at a distance of in free space. What is the electric field mid-way between the two line charges?

Answer: (3)

Solution

The field of an infinite line charge at a distance is . At the mid-point each line is at a distance , so each contributes a magnitude . The field of points away from it and the field of points towards it; at the
