Treffer: Numerical modelling of a charged pendulum above a grounded conducting surface.

The problem of an electrically charged pendulum above a grounded conducting surface is examined using traditional analyses, such as forces, energy, and torque. The system was numerically modelled using a finite difference method and analysed. A number of classroom activities have been suggested. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
