Science Fair Projects Kids Will Enjoy Part Seven – Static Electricity

24 Hour Science Projects

Here is part seven of our Science Fair projects Kids Will Enjoy about static Electricity. In this experiment we are going to see how to objects that are negatively laden are attracted to objects that are positively laden. Once the objects are no longer negatively laden, they are not drawn by a positively laden object any more.

Remember for a full science project you will have to combine this whole series, so, I hope you have time to wait for them all! If not, there is a very good solution for you, go to 24 Hour Science Projects; there you will find complete science fair projects you can do in 24 hours or less! So, if you are in a hurry, go to 24 Hour Science Projects now!

Here are our science fair projects kids will enjoy:

Remember, for all science fair projects you have to make notes of everything you do, why you do it, what you are trying to prove or demonstrate and your conclusion. It is always a good idea to take photos for your exhibition.

The case of the dancing paper dolls:

What you need for your experiment:

• Two books
• A glass disk
• A metal plate
• Two books
• Tissue paper dolls about 3cm tall (cut any way you prefer as long as they not too big)
• A woolen cloth

How to do your experiment:

1. Cut out your paper dolls (about 3-4)
2. Place two books a little way apart with the metal plate between them
3. Place the glass disk over them to be over the metal plate
4. Place the paper dolls in the metal plate
5. What happens when you place the paper dolls on the metal plate under the glass disk?
6. Now rub the glass disk with the woolen cloth for a few minutes
7. What happens?
8. Why does it happen?

• By rubbing the glass disk with the woolen cloth it is loaded with electron to make it negative
• Now the disk draws the positively laden paper dolls and they are also loaded
• Now they drop down and the metal plate draws the electrons from them, once again making them positive
• Now the glass draws them again and so the dance continues

I think this can be quite a good display for your friends to admire!

This is the seventh of our short series of science fair projects kids will enjoy. Look out for the others as doing all these experiments as one will probably be the best way of doing a thorough science fair project.

Science Fair Projects Kids Will Enjoy Part Five – Static Electricity

24 Hour Science Projects

Here is part five of our Science Fair projects Kids Will Enjoy about static Electricity. In this experiment we are going to see how to objects that are negatively laden “push” each other away. Opposite to a negative and positive drawing each other.

The case of the hostile balloons!

What you will need:

• 2 Balloons
• 2 pieces of string
• A wooly sweater

How to do this experiment:

1. Blow up both balloons as much as possible without bursting them
2. Tie them with the strings
3. Rub both on your sweater for a few minutes
4. What happens?
5. Why do you think it happens?
6. What happens to the balloon closest to your sweater?

After you have rubbed the balloons on your sweater, they are both negatively laden with electrons they withdrew from your sweater. Because the sweater has given off the electrons it is now positively laden, this is why the balloon closest to your sweater sticks to your sweater while the two balloons drift far apart. So, what does that tell you about two objects that are negative or positively laden?

This is the fifth of our short series of science fair projects kids will enjoy. Look out for our next post as doing all these experiments as one will probably be the best way of doing a thorough science fair project.

This is one of our examples of science fair projects that is very easy and are suitable for elementary school kids. We are going to use sand to represent the land and water the ocean. It is going to show us why temperatures close to the sea is more moderate. Winters close to the sea tends to be milder than inland. Humidity can also influence how hot it feels. In more humid conditions it feels hotter, even though the temperature is the same.

Now on to our measuring temperature experiment

What you need for this experiment:

• Sand
• A jug of water
• Two bowls
• A thermometer
• A note book
• A pen

How to do your science project:

1. Pour water into one of the bowls and sand into the other bowl. It is not necessary to measure the quantities exactly it must just be more or less the same quantity.
2. Now you have to place the two bowls in a cool place together.
3. Leave them there for a few hours.
4. Measure the temperature of both, make sure it is the same otherwise leave it for a while longer until they are the same temperature.
5. Make a note of the temperature.
6. Now you have to place both bowls in a sunny and hot place for about two hours until they are very hot.
7. Measure and record the temperatures of both bowls and make a note of it.
8. Put both bowls in a cool place indoors.
9. Now you have to measure the temperatures of the water and the sand every 15 minutes and write it down in your not book.
10. You should notice that the sand cools down much faster than the water.
11. You can also dip your hands in both and feel the difference. You can make a note of it as well but, of course your real evidence is not what you feel but the temperatures you recorded.
12. Why is it that there is a difference?
13. Where does the heat come from?

This is a very easy science fair projects and is also one of our examples of science fair projects that is very suitable for homeschooling. If you need more examples of science fair projects, you can visit Easy Science Fair Projects.
