Abstract
Some results given in Vol. I. of Thomson and Tait's Natural Philosophy may be much more simply obtained by calculating the potential of a wire rather than its attraction. That potential is easily found aswhere c is the length of the wire, ρ its line density, r1 and r2 the distances of its ends from the point at which the potential is to be found.
