Material Detail

Moving Charge Applet

Moving Charge Applet

This applet shows the field of a moving charge, and how it is concentrated directions perpendicular to the motion. It also shows how information only propogates at the speed of light, and shows how the accelerating charge emits radiation by the compression of electric field lines, which produces an electromagnetic wave.
