Static Electricity Video

Rubbing certain materials together can cause the build-up of electrical charges, or static electricity. In this video segment adapted from ZOOM, cast members charge a vinyl record by rubbing it with a wool scarf, and then use the record to demonstrate static electricity in action: The record lifts breakfast cereal right off the table!
The web page is located within Teachers'Domain, an online educational resource produced by WGBH Boston. It has two related components — collections and courses — that help teachers enhance their students' learning experiences and advance their own teaching skills. The Teachers' Domain collections include classroom-ready multimedia resources for use in lessons or independent study. Registration is free for everyone (teachers, students, parents).
