Hey, Hell's Bells starts playing at 5:42. HAHA

@thisisstupiud Yeah! I love his videos. There are the spooky bells that ring in medias res!

in the little picture at 421, it doesnt appear as if the amount of field lines change with area...

[Sion1349]

I think the part around 4.24 is a bit confusing.You'd better concentrate on the fact that flux stays constant when A increases because E will decrease too.Only if you increase both the area and the charge the flux may increase

@kpow2009 if the center of your brain is the charge and is emitting lines outwardly, wearing a baseball cap and a helmet would be different to you rite?

[ccortez001]

will electric field lines being created based upon the amount of columbs be proportionally distant from one another angularly???

[MayurNSajanKeDMG]

@kpow2009 bigger area means more space for more of the field lines to go through tht surface i believe ... cause remember the field lines exist everywhere ... there are infinitely many
