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.
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 hostile balloons!
What you will need:
- 2 Balloons
- 2 pieces of string
- A wooly sweater
How to do this experiment:
- Blow up both balloons as much as possible without bursting them
- Tie them with the strings
- Rub both on your sweater for a few minutes
- What happens?
- Why do you think it happens?
- 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.
