Simulation Description: E = V/d Parallel Plates Simulation Two horizontal conducting plates sit opposite each other — the top plate is positive (+), the bottom is negative (−). Yellow field lines flow downward between them, equally spaced and parallel, showing a uniform field. Small orange positive charges drift downward, speeding up as the field strengthens. […]

Simulation Description: Electrostatic Field Strength Explorer This simulation is a visual lab instrument for understanding the inverse square law in electrostatics. At the centre is a draggable electric charge. Around it, a glowing heatmap field radiates outward, showing how electric field strength changes with distance. The area closest to the charge burns bright red-orange (extremely

What the Simulation Shows The Gold Leaf Electroscope simulation shows a realistic instrument — a metal disc at the top, connected by a metal stem down into a glass jar, with two gold leaves hanging from the bottom of the stem inside the jar. Six buttons let students interact with it in sequence. Touch with

What the Simulation Shows – Electric fields The electric fields simulation has five interactive modes, each demonstrating a different configuration of electric field lines using physically accurate Coulomb’s law calculations. ＋ Single Positive Charge — a single orange charge sits at the centre of the canvas. Field lines radiate symmetrically outward in all directions, with

What the Simulation Shows The static electricity simulation has three interactive scenes, each demonstrating a different aspect of electrostatic behaviour. 🖊 Friction Scene — A wool jumper sits on the right and a purple balloon on the left. Each click of the action button rubs the balloon against the jumper. With every rub, purple electron
