This is a simulated version of the “Electrostatics Landscapes” lab performed with conductive carbon paper, silver metal paint, and electrodes connected to a voltage source.
Instructions:
1. Use your finger or mouse to draw metal blobs onto the paper.
2. Place the 12 volt led onto a metal blob.
3. Place the 0 volt led onto a different metal blob.
4. Tap the play button and watch as the paper achieves electrostatic equilibrium.
