Electric Field Lines
The Electric Field Lines Interactive allows learners to drag positive and negative electric charges onto the workspace and view the pattern of electric field lines for an individual charge or a configuration of charges.
Users are encouraged to open the Interactive and explore. For a more guided experience, The Physics Classroom has prepared an activity for use with this Interactive and encourages teachers to use it with their classes.
Learners and Instructors may also be interested in viewing the accompanying Notes page. Technical information, teaching suggestions, and related resources that complement this Interactive are provided on the Notes page. View Notes.
