Electrostatics and field lines

Ok, what we usually tell is electric field originates from a positive charge and ends on a negative charge. This time you placed a positive charge and there is no negative charge anywhere and now you …

Gauss' law in matter and the macroscopic electric field

If you apply an electric field E' on a material. Then polarisation happens inside that material. This polarisation will create a new electric field that will be equal to the field caused by $\rho_b \, …
