Part 2 is devoted to the electromagnetic tensor and deals mostly with this example. You can safely skip to part 3 for a more general tensor discussion.
Part 2B continues explaining how a sphere with arrows visualizes the electromagnetic tensor. This time we move to a 4-dimensional space, and show how now it can represent both the electric and the magnetic field. We show how different coordinate systems can cause it to change from electric to magnetic and vice versa.
