Step 1:
Take two strings and tape them to the top of a door frame, about 3 - 5 centimeters (approx. 2 - 3 inches) apart.
Step 2:
Blow up the balloons and tie the ends, so that the air doesn't escape.
Step 3:
Tie each balloon to a string, so they are at about the same height and are touching each other.
What happens???
In this experiment we will demonstrate, how static electricity works.
Things we will need:
- 2 pieces of string - each about 0.5 - 1 meter long (approx. 2 - 3 feet)
- sticky tape
- 2 balloons
- woolen cloth
Step 4:
Take the woolen cloth and rub each of the balloons with it (you can also rub them at a woolen sweater or anything else made of wool) and let them hang.
