A line used to indicate the direction of a field, especially an electric or magnetic field, at various points in space. The tangent of a line of force at each point indicates the orientation of the field at that point. Arrows are usually used to indicate the direction of the force. 2, record 6, English, - field%20line
Record number: 6, Textual support number: 1 CONT
A field line is a locus that is defined by a vector field and a starting location within the field. A vector field defines a direction at all points in space; a field line may be constructed by tracing a path in the direction of the vector field. More precisely, the tangent line to the path at each point is required to be parallel to the vector field at that point. Field lines are useful for visualizing vector fields, which consist of a separate individual vector for every location in space. If the vector field describes a velocity field, then the field lines follow stream lines in the flow. Perhaps the most familiar example of a vector field described by field lines is the magnetic field, which is often depicted using field lines emanating from a magnet. 1, record 6, English, - field%20line

Il est [...] possible d’opérer par attraction électrostatique. Les flocs sont alors chargés d’électricité statique [...] puis ils sont précipités sur le tissu chargé d’électricité de signe opposé. Ceci confère aux flocs une orientation préférentielle à la surface du tissu. 2, record 12, French, - attraction%20%C3%A9lectrostatique

énergie potentielle : La force [...] résulte de l'interaction entre deux corps; l'énergie potentielle U(M) associe à cette interaction est donc une propriété de l'ensemble des deux corps, qui interagissent, et dépend de la distance relative entre ces corps, tandis que l'énergie cinétique est attachée à un seul objet et dépend de sa vitesse. Par suite, l'énergie potentielle totale d’un ensemble de particules est la somme des énergies potentielles de chaque paire de particules en interaction. À chaque type d’interaction correspond une énergie potentielle particulière :électrostatique, de gravitation, élastique, etc. 2, record 13, French, - %C3%A9nergie%20potentielle%20d%26rsquo%3Binteraction
