A straight wire of length L has a positive charge Q distributed along its length. Set up the integral with limits and solve it to find the magnitude of the electric field due to the wire at a point located a distance d from one end of the wire along the line extending from the wire. Must show high level of detail in your logic. Must use the left end of the wire as your origin in the x axis. Answer must be in terms of L, d, Q, x, pi and Eo only.
