First computer exercise for 222.

Electrostatic Applets

This exercise uses a set of Java Applets to help you visualize electric fields and electric potentials by representing them as vectors and lines on the screen. As far as I know the now work on all browsers that have the java pluggin.

Please follow the directions and answer the questions as you go along. Your report should consist of answers to each of the questions and a series of sketches of the field and potential lines. Go to the exercises.
