Here are some pictures from the class where we made the Electrophorus and the Leyden Jar. Great job with working through the analysis of how the charges are moving! It’s a little tricky, but I can tell that you guys are getting it!
Grant and Mesale working hard on the activity.
Kayla is feeling the electrons pass from the aluminum pan to her face! Zap! Some students were trying this on their tongue. A little unsanitary… but they felt a good shock. Why do you think they felt a sizable shock on their tongues?
Apparently I have very ATTRACTIVE hair. Emma’s found an excellent source of electrons. I was making good use of my head to charge up the styrofoam plates.
