Electricity - Static and Circuits
We conducted investigations of both static electricity and creating circuits using conductive and non-conductive material. The students explored pulling pop cans across the table using charged balloons, and in this video we used a Van der graaf Generator to demonstrate how neutral objects can be induced to have a charge.
