3.

_{Hold the charged balloon near,}

_{but not touching,}

_{the metal pan of the neutral electroscope.}

Complete the first row of the observation table and the first two boxes on the back of

this page.

4.

_{Ground the electroscope again by touching the top metal pan with your hand for a couple of}

seconds.

Next charge the balloon the fur/your hair again for a

minimum of 2 minutes

Purpose

:

To observe charging by contact and the resulting movement of electrons.

Materials

:

-balloon

-electroscope

-fur or your hair

Method

:

1.

_{Ground the electroscope by touching the top metal pan with your hand for a couple of}

seconds.

2.

_{Charge the balloon by rubbing it with fur/your hair for a}

_{minimum of 2 minutes}

_.

Using the Electrostatic Series, determine the charge on the balloon and record it below.

3.

_{Hold the charged balloon near,}

_{but not touching,}

_{the metal pan of the neutral electroscope.}

Complete the first row of the observation table and the first two boxes on the back of

this page.

4.

_{Ground the electroscope again by touching the top metal pan with your hand for a couple of}

seconds.

Next charge the balloon the fur/your hair again for a

minimum of 2 minutes

. This time,

touch

the metal pan

of the electroscope with the balloon and then pull it away

to remove it.

Complete the second row of the observation table

and the last two boxes on the back of this page.
