Motion of Charged Particle Activity
     In this activity you will place a charged particle (black point charge in the simulation) in various electric fields and report on its motions as a result of the electric force acting on it. 

    Use the simulation to develop an understanding of the motion of a charged particle in various fields you create and record your observations as a list of 5 important take aways that you have learned from the experience. 

NOTE: If you can't run the simulation below on your computer, try using the browser-based version that you can find here.
