Principle

The pupils see that charges can be transferred in the air by a spark and that these sparks appear primarily at the tips and edges of objects.

Benefits

  • Quick and easy experiment for qualitatively understanding of electrostatic phenomena

Tasks

Charges are transmitted by sparks. Show that even without contact between two bodies, charges can be transferred and that the shape of these bodies can play a role in this.
