Answer

$E = 1.69\times 10^{-2}~V/m$

Work Step by Step

We can find the magnitude of the electric field: $E = \frac{V}{L}$ $E = \frac{i~R}{L}$ $E = \frac{i~\rho~L}{A~L}$ $E = \frac{i~\rho}{A}$ $E = \frac{(2.00~A)(1.69\times 10^{-8}~\Omega\cdot m)}{2.00\times 10^{-6}~m^2}$ $E = 1.69\times 10^{-2}~V/m$
