General Physics II
Lab 1 - Electrostatics
Answer the following computer-based problems in a Word document. Where appropriate, include screen captures of the simulations.
Open the "EM Field" application on your computer. Load the "coaxial" charge distribution. What is the electric field inside the inner circle of charges? What is the electric field outside the circle of charges? (Use the "test charge" to measure the field vector at different points). You should take a screen capture of the program and include it in your document.
Now open the "Electric Field Hockey" application on your computer. Spend some time playing the game, and save a screen capture of your results for the highest level that you hit the goal.
