Lets say we have an infinite charged wire with a line charge [itex] \lambda [/itex]
on it. Now when I move with respect to this wire the E field will increase do to length contraction. And there will also be a B field that we could calculate with ampere's law.
But the increased E would make it seem that there is more total charge.
Because the E field exists every where in space at a stronger strength.
Is this only because we have an infinite wire that this is happening?
