5B20.35- Radio inside Faraday's cage
- Description
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.
