Friction Rod Set

Description

Learn about the triboelectric series, friction, induction and conduction! With this set, students can develop a model of what is happening to the electrons around the atoms in a conductor versus an insulator. Investigate the nature of the mobile subatomic particle called the electron and the forces created when an object has an unequal number of positive and negative charges. Comes with a Teacher’s Guide.
