What happens to the electric field when you get farther from an electric charge?
An electric field gets stronger the closer you get to a charge exerting that field. Distance and field strength are inversely proportional. When distance is increased, field strength decreases. The opposite is true as well. Additionally, field strength varies as the inverse square of the distance between the charge and the observer. Double the distance and you will find that there is 1/22 or 1/4th the electric field strength as there was at the start of your experiment.
What happens to the strength of the electric field each particle exerts on the other?
The strength of the electric field approaches zero
What happens if you placed an insulator in an electric field?
You would then have an insulator immersed in an electric field. Nothing would happen.
How does matter become charged?
Matter becomes charged by electric charges, static electricity and an electric field.
What happens to a positivly charged object is placed within a positive electric field?
It will be pushed away from the source of the electric field.

Is the electric field caused by an electron weakest near the electron?
The electric field is stronger near the electron and becomes weaker as the distance from the electron increases.
What happens to the field of view as magnification increases?
It becomes smaller as the detail becomes better.
What happens when an electric field is placed inside a magnetic field?
Electricity is formed (electrons move )
When switching to a higher power lens what happens to the field of view?
The field of view becomes narrower.
Can intense electromagnetic fields attract lightning?
Lightning occurs when there is a large difference in charge between the ground and storm-clouds. This acts similar to a huge capacitor. When the potential difference becomes large enough, lightning arcs from the ground to the clouds. So there is already an electric field in the air under a storm-cloud. A magnetic field can produce its own electric field. The addition of these two electric fields may increase the potential difference enough to cause a lightning arc is the superimposed E-field is large enough.
What happens to the magnitude of a magnetic field if the electric field that induces it increases the rate at which it changes?
The magnitude of the magnetic field is decreased
