Van der Graph

The Van der Graph is a big electrical machine that generates a charge and transfers through people. It uses a belt that spins around generates a static charge, the faster the belt spins the bigger the charge will be.

I learned that the sock can travel trough multiple people and then it dies down and stops. The shock must also be discharged after every use. You can also shock other people even after u take your hand off the machine.

I think it was important because it is an interesting machine and its good to know how charges and discharges work.
