About

Dipole Trajectory Wrong Model

The EJSS Dipole Trajectory Wrong model shows the electric field generated by a dipole. Drag and drop the 2 dipole charges to any position to change the separation between the charges. A test charge moves in the dipole field and shows its velocity vector, but its trajectory is incorrect.  Users can examine and correct the model if Ejs is installed. 

Exercises:

1. Run the simulation and observe the dipole field due to fixed charges (red and blue) . Also note the trajectory of the test charge.* You can move the test charge anywhere on the screen (except on top of one of the stationary charges). You can also change the separation by dragging on the charges, between the two fixed charges.
2. What is wrong with this simulation? What is your evidence? Hint: Pause the simulation at several points and look at the velocity vector. Compare it with the Electric field. Should the velocity point in the same direction as the field? Why or why not?
3. If you have EJSS installed, now that you have determined what is wrong with the model, correct it.  You will need to go to  Model->Evolution to make the changes. Describe how you changed it and how you verified your work.

Exploring Electric Fields: Unveiling the Dipole Trajectory Wrong Model

Electric fields, those unseen forces that govern the behavior of charged particles, have long fascinated scientists and enthusiasts alike. Visualizing these fields and their effects on charged objects can shed light on the intricate dance of electromagnetic interactions. In this article, we'll delve into the intriguing realm of electric fields with a focus on the "Dipole Trajectory Wrong" model.

Unmasking the Dipole Trajectory Wrong Model

https://iwant2study.org/lookangejss/05electricitynmagnetism_11efield/ejss_model_DipoleTrajectoryWrong602/

Imagine a scenario where you can manipulate and observe the behavior of electric fields using a virtual laboratory. This is precisely what the EJSS Dipole Trajectory Wrong model offers. This interactive simulation showcases the electric field generated by a dipole – a pair of charges with opposite signs – and invites users to tinker with its components. 

Upon launching the simulation, you're greeted with a visual representation of the dipole and a test charge. The two dipole charges can be freely positioned by dragging and dropping, allowing you to alter the distance between them. While the test charge moves within the dipole's electric field, displaying its velocity vector, a subtle problem arises – the trajectory it follows is incorrect.

Engaging with the Model: Exercises and Exploration

The simulation presents a set of exercises to deepen your understanding and analytical skills. Begin by running the simulation and observing the dipole field vectors generated by the fixed charges (represented in red + and blue –). Take note of the trajectory the test charge follows, a trajectory that exhibits inaccuracies.

Curious minds are prompted to answer pivotal questions. What is amiss in this simulation? Your evidence-gathering journey involves pausing the simulation at various points and scrutinizing the velocity vector. An intriguing challenge emerges: compare this vector with the electric field itself. Should the velocity vector align with the electric field? Why or why not?

Should you possess the Easy JavaScript Simulations (EJSS) toolkit installed, you can play an active role in the evolution of this model. Identifying the flaw is the first step. Once pinpointed, navigate to "Model->Evolution" to effect the necessary corrections. Detail your modifications and the validation process you undertook to ensure accuracy.

this is a incorrect model of the dx/dt and dy/dt. Modify this to reflect the correct physics of motion

 

Understanding the Nuances

It's important to bear in mind the fundamental concept of a test charge. A test charge is designed to experience external electric fields without influencing the field itself. As a result, there are no field vectors surrounding it, allowing for a focused exploration of its trajectory.
