- Summary
2D illustration of the link between electric field and electric potential. The grad(V) vector is computed at every point of a geometric matrix the interval values of which you can modify.
- Learning objectives
- To study the link between the electric field (vectorial value) and the electric potential (scalar value).
- To illustrate the 2D meaning of the gradient operator.
- How to use the animation
Click on the circles at lower right to select the interval to be used.
