Space and fields

Electric & Magnetic Fields Lab

A classroom-grade field simulator for AQA GCSE and A-level Physics. Build field patterns, measure forces and extend into charged-particle motion and crossed-field reasoning.

Interactive physics lab

Electric & Magnetic Fields Lab

Move from GCSE field-line patterns to A-level quantitative fields, motor effect, charged-particle motion and crossed-field balance.

GCSE focus: field lines show the direction of force on a positive test charge, and closer lines mean a stronger field.
GCSE: move the probe and describe the direction of force on a positive test charge.
A-level: double the distance from a point charge and show that field strength falls to about a quarter.
A-level: use E = V/d for the parallel plates and explain why decreasing separation strengthens the field.
