-StaticElectricityDiscoveries-

Hey! So in Science we’ve been learning about Static Electricity and it’s pretty fun coming from someone who’s not that passionate about science.. It’s a simple topic but there are some things to note about it that really surprised me the most:

 –Static electricity hurts (Trust me)

 -Electrons are for the Negatively charge atoms, not the Neutrons (I’ve made this mistake too many times)

  -The metal robs on some buildings are used to ground electricity

 -Socks are great conductors (Don’t ask)

 

It’s very easy to understand with some labs and the one that worked the most for me was our “Car Race” where we balanced a meter stick on something and used static electricity from two objects to rotate the stick. It made me question a lot of things as well as answer things for me. So that’s science so far!
