Move the negatively charged rod in this interactive simulation to observe electric charge induction, and touch the rod to see the net charge distribution interactively.
Bring the positively charged rod close to the grounded conducting sphere in this interactive simulation to observe how the electric charge distribution and the sphere’s net charge change due to induction
By bringing the negatively charged rod close to the grounded conducting spheres in this interactive simulation, you can give the system a net charge and observe changes in electric charge distribution.
Interactively observe the relationship between charge density and radius of curvature by bringing the positively charged rod close and into contact.
Interactively work with the electroscope by bringing the negatively charged rod close to it and then into contact.
How is electric charge exchanged between objects? What is the source of electric charge in materials? How are the charged particles arranged in atoms?
Hands-free teaching! Guide your students through the editable worksheet stress-free, so they can interactively learn the basics of electric charge with ease.
This resource helps middle school students explore how forces do work and how energy changes forms through interactive, visual simulations. Using PhET simulations, students will observe real-time changes in kinetic, potential, thermal, and other forms of energy while connecting these ideas to key physics concepts.
I am Iman Arbabi, a high school physics teacher who began teaching physics in 2000. Because of my interest in computer programming, I create physics simulations and use them in my classes, sharing them through the web with other physics teachers and students. Certainly, these interactive physics simulation software programs are highly effective in students’ learning and understanding, making it much easier for them to visualize concepts.
