Eisco PH0900 - Electrostatics Kit - 16 Piece Set

This kit is ideal for small group experiments in electrostatics.The set is built around the special, dual-purpose electroscope, which in addition to being useful for general electrostatic experiments, is capable of performing measurements of the activity of weak radio-active materials. Positive and negative charges can be produced with the included acetate strips and woollen cloths.A great variety of experiments can be performed including determining types of charge, measuring the amount of conducted or induced charge with the gold leaf electroscope or by using the polystyrene spheres as hollow conductors, and using the proof plane to investigate the distribution of charges on conductors.
