Behavior:
Electrostatic fields are conservative, meaning
they possess potential energy that can be
stored and retrieved. The work done in
moving a charge from one point to another is
independent of the path taken.
Note:
Electrostatic fields are stable. Unless external factors are
introduced (like additional charges or conductors), electrostatic
fields remain constant over time.
