Work Performed Against an Electric Force

Work Performed Against an Electric Force

This page, authored and curated by David P. Stern, illustrates the concept of work against an electric force using the examples of the Van de Graaff generator and lightening. There are also shorter examples of the Xerox machine and electric charge on transparency sheets as well as links to sites relating to the Van de Graaff machine or lightening. This is an optional section from a much larger collection of resources title "From Stargazers to Starships". A French and Italian translations of this lesson are available.
