Physics
Charge on conductors
Explore charge on a conductor: sample the surface, measure induction without contact, then transfer charge to a Faraday pail.
What happens
Record one sample at each angle: 0° and 90°. Isolated spheroid field; small-area sampling. Deep-pail induction is idealized; the entrance transition is illustrative. The complete pail is assumed even in cutaway. Charge marks are symbolic, not individual electrons.
