Activity 5: Rope Mazes Form groups of 2-3 children, each with their own skipping rope and a few cones. Using their ropes and cones, each group makes a maze on the floor that involves a hopping and jumping challenge. Once all groups have finished, children circulate to other groups to try the different mazes.
The electric field strength is inversely related to the square of the distance. So by whatever factor d changes by, the E value is altered in the inverse direction by the square of that factor. The specifics are as follows: a) d increases by a factor of 2; divide the original E by 4.
Recall that the electric field strength is defined in terms of how it is measured or tested; thus, the test charge finds its way into the equation. Electric field is the force per quantity of charge on the test charge. The electric field strength is not dependent upon the quantity of charge on the test charge.
