ELECTRIC FIELDS MADE VISIBLE

Physics educator James Lincoln helps people understand the natural World.






These gifs are from a Youtube video he made on how to “see” an electric field, the region around a charged object where electric force is experienced. When the object is positively charged, electric field lines extend radially outward from the object. When the object is negatively charged, the lines extend radially inward.
