This animation depicts the electric field of a moving positive charge when the speed of the charge is small compared to the speed of light. It was designed to help students visualize that the direction of the field lines is radially outward for a positive charge. The item may be viewed as a video or in stepped motion.
This item is part of a larger collection of visualizations developed by the MIT TEAL/Studio Physics Project to support an introductory course in electricity and magnetism.
