Electricity and Magnetism

5A50.10 – Wimshurst Generator

This demonstration showcases the principles of electrostatic induction by generating high-voltage sparks and charges, illustrating concepts of electrical potential and charge separation.

6F40.10 – Rayleigh scattering

This demonstration shows the behavior of sunset through Rayleigh scattering. It is a clear way to demonstrate the behavior of light in the atmosphere and gain student’s interest.

5H30.11 – Paraller wires

This demonstration showcases the connection between electricity and magnetism by providing an insight into the behavior of wires under electric current and influence of the magnetic field of each of them.

5B20.35 – Radio inside Faraday’s cage

This demonstration showcases that Faraday’s cage can block external static and non-static electric fields. It illustrates that electromagnetic waves, which include radio waves, cannot penetrate the cage. This demonstration provides a clear, visual example of how Faraday cages work, making abstract concepts like electromagnetic shielding more tangible and understandable.

5C10.10 – Leyden jar

This demonstration shows how the Leyden jar can store electrical charge, which can then be discharged in a visible spark. The dramatic discharge of a spark can engage audiences and stimulate interest in the science of electricity.
