Principle

The pupils learn that in insulators charges are locally bound but in metals, that is conductors, they are free to move.

Benefits

  • Quick and easy experiment for qualitatively understanding of electrostatic phenomena

Tasks

Can the charges in bodies be shifted? Investigate various different electrically-charged bodies to see if the charges in them can be shifted.
