Experiments with Static Electric Charges
BlackBoard Notes
======================= Photo - Click for a Larger Version =============================
======================= First Board Section =============================
- Note to Jeff: These notes are very similar to those used for the 104 electrostatics experiment in the previous week. The third board section is identical
- Examine charges (+ and –) on insulators and conductors
- Next week:
- Meet in our regular lab room (Bewkes 231)
- Read "Using a Digital Multimeter"** before lab! You'll refer to this document many times this semester.
======================= Second Board Section =============================
- For each experiment:
- Briefly describe what you are doing, and why!
- Draw a sketch (or sketches) showing how the charges are moving
- Briefly describe and explain your observations
- Only the negative charges are free to move!
======================= Third Board Section =============================
- Add pictures showing the charge distribution on a neutral and charged conductor, as shown in blackboard photo above
