Electric Force Field Lines

Questions

Please answer the questions below.

Now, create your own space with at least two source charges (either positive or negative) and experiment with the space using test protons. Sketch your space below and label all the positive or negative source charges, the test protons, and the electric force field lines.
Note: Draw your sketch in the sketchpad below

Describe the electric force field in your space and why you think the particles behave the way they do. 

What happens to the speed of the test-charges when you adjust the strength of the source charges? Why do you think this happens?
