ROLL A CAN WITH STATIC ELECTRICITY

You will require

* A vacant soft drink can

* exploded inflatable

* A head of hair

What to do

1. Spot the can on its side on a level smooth surface like a table or a smooth floor.

2. Rub the exploded inflatable forward and backward through your hair truly quick.

3. Presently the fun part – Hold the inflatable near the can without really contacting the can. The can will begin to move towards the inflatable without you notwithstanding contacting it!

Attempt This Too: While you have the inflatable out, tear up some portion of a tissue into minor pieces around 1/4 inch (.5 cm) enormous. Rub the inflatable in your hair again and bring it near the tissue pieces. They will be pulled in to the inflatable and after that hop away.

How can it work?
 

This works a ton like our bowing water test. When you rub the inflatable through your hair, undetectable electrons (with a negative charge) develop on the outside of the inflatable. This is called friction based electricity, which signifies "immobile power" The electrons have the ability to pull light items (with a positive charge) toward them – like the soft drink can.

MAKE IT AN EXPERIMENT

The venture above is a DEMONSTRATION. To make it a genuine analysis, you can attempt to address these inquiries:

1. Does the size of the inflatable change the intensity of the draw?

2. Does the length of the people hair impact the intensity of the electricity produced via friction?

3. How much water would you be able to put in the can until the inflatable can pull it no more?
