Field Model, Charges in an Electric Field

Spiders ride electric fields to fly hundreds of miles.

Electric Field from Point Charges

All charged objects produce a thing we call their electric field. It is not observable in the conventional sense and might be thought of as a clever way to keep track of how charged objects interact. The field from one electron can influence another electron and the result is they feel a repelling force.
