Electric field around a large and a small conducting sphere at opposite electric potential. The shape of the field lines is computed exactly, using the method of image charges with an infinite series of charges inside the two spheres. Field lines are always orthogonal to the surface of each sphere. In reality, the field is created by a continuous charge distribution at the surface of each sphere, indicated by small plus and minus signs. The electric potential is depicted as background color with yellow at 0V.
