Additional Learning Tools and Resources
Watching a presentation is a passive activity. Getting information is important ... but its not the destination or end point. Now that you've watched the video, its time to do something with the information you've heard. It's time to act on it. The resources below provide an opportunity to do this. We encourage learners to solidify their learning through the use of one or more of the following resources.
Minds On Physics the App, Part 4, Mission SE12 in the Static Electricity Module
Minds On Physics includes interactive questioning modules that provide a rigorous workout in careful reading, analytical thinking, and conceptual reasoning. Mission SE12 from our Static Electricity module is all about the electric field lines. Put on your work-out clothes and get started.
Physics Ineeractives, Electric Field Line Plotter
This simulation from our Interactives section was demonstrated near the end of the video. Simply position + and - charges on the work space and the program displays lines of force in the surrounding space.
Physics Classroom Tutorial, Static Elecricity Chapter
Sometimes you need a written reference to freshen up on what you're learning. And that written reference would be the Tutorial section of our website. The following page will be helpful complement to this video:
