Introduction

This JavaScript application appDiPole simulates electrostatic field lines around two point charges located a fixed distance from each other. The user can modify charge locations & charge quantites of each point charge. The field lines simulate an electrostatic field around electron charge increments in a 10 by 10 nanometer box. This scale can be considered just above that of quantum effects.

These E-Fields are calculated using the Lorentz's Force Equation under static conditions. The Electromagnetic (EM) phenomena plotted in this applet was investigated by Michael Faraday.
