Learning Goals
-
- Determine the variables that affect the strength and direction of the electric field for a static arrangement of charges.
- Investigate the variables that affect the strength of the electrostatic potential (voltage).
- Explain equipotential lines and compare them to the electric field lines.
- For an arrangement of static charges, predict the electric field lines. Verify the prediction using vector addition.
