Description
The Electrostatics Lab is a carefully-chosen set of items that allows students to demonstrate multiple electrostatic principles and phenomena: electrophorus, charging electroscopes by induction and contact, electrostatic attraction, repulsion and induction, Faraday’s ice pail experiment, and surface distribution of the charge. A comprehensive activity guide is also included.
