Overview

In this lesson, students will continue their investigation of the motion of electrons due to electric forces.They will explore the notion of electric field lines, which are visualizations of electric field. Students should investigate "what do the field lines represent?" They should be introduced to how to generate a continuous field by "spatially arranging" poles.
