Schematic representation of [[/field lines]] of [[/electric field]] around a negative [[/electric charge]].

A static [[/electric charge]] (grey small circle at the centre) generates [[/electrostatic field]] (blue area). A sudden [[/acceleration]] of the charge (dark blue small circle) creates an [[/electromagnetic pulse]] (red ring) which [[/radiation|radiates]] away into space at the [[/speed of light]]. A charge moving at a constant velocity //v// generates [[/electric field|electric]] and [[/magnetic field]] attached with the charge (green area).
