Demonstrate the conversion of mechanical energy into electrical energy by generating a static charge.

This extra large electroscope is ideal for classroom demonstrations of electrostatic principles. A lightweight metal vane is used as a pointer in the electroscope. This lightweight metal blade deflects when the electroscope plate is charged. A transparent scale is provided to measure the angle of the deflection. Front glass window slides up to allow insertion of ionizing material in chamber.

The concept of electric fields can be difficult to visualize, but the Dry Field Mapping Kit makes it easy.
