    We have two very long wires, which are parallel to each other pointing to the right in front of us. The pair of wire is horizontal. The wire closest to us carries a charge per unit length of 1mC/m and the other the opposite charge. The two wires are 1m apart and both move together at 100m/s along the wire to the right. We are looking at what happens in the middle region of the two wires (not the end)....
