Consider line of charge with uniform charge density, $\lambda = \rho \pi a^2$. What is the magnitude of the electric field outside of the line charge (at a distance $s>a$)? 1. $E = \lambda/(4 \pi \varepsilon_0 s^2)$ 2. $E = \lambda/(2 \pi \varepsilon_0 s^2)$ 3. $E = \lambda/(4 \pi \varepsilon_0 s)$ 4. $E = \lambda/(2 \pi \varepsilon_0 s)$ 5. Something else?! *Use Gauss' Law* Note: * CORRECT ANSWER: D
