Learning objectives

  • To illustrate how to separate electric charges in a neutral conductor.
  • To explain how charges can move in conductors.
  • To visualise electric attraction and repulsion.

This animation illustrates a common classroom demonstration of electrostatic effects. The illustrations include force at a distance, polarization, the effects of electric fields, electric neutrality and the properties of conductors.
