“Van de Graaff” Blog Post


Today we played with a Van de Graaff Generator.  Describe what the generator did (what you saw) and why it did it (the physics behind it).  For an extra point, come up with something that you would like to test on the Van de Graff Generator and explain what you think it would do! (The best ones may get to test it!)
