Electrostatic System

The Electrostatic System Physics Kit comes with 26 components, including an electroscope, pith balls, and various rods one needs to investigate core concepts in introductory electrostatics. With this kit students can explore common experiments such as The Gold Leaf Electroscope, Positive and Negative Charges, Insulators and Conductors, and Coulomb’s Law. Includes an Experiment Guide covering 11 activities:
Exploring Electrostatic Charge Using Rods and Cloths
Movement of Charge on an Object
Is There More Than One Type of Charge
Comparing Magnetic and Electrostatic Forces
The Electroscope
Conductors versus Insulators
Charging objects by Induction and Conduction
Volta’s Electrophorus
Coulomb’s Law
The Conducting Cup
Faraday’s Ice Pail
