Mini Leyden Jar A Capacitor - see Condenser A Condenser - see Capacitor
Petrus van Musschenbroek Invented 1746 in Leyden, Holland
Leyden jar - an instrument used to hold or store an electrical charge
MINI LEYDEN JAR Add water to Leyden Jar
NEUTRAL MINI LEYDEN JAR
MINI LEYDEN JAR Electrons from ElectrophorusNail conducts electrons to water Water Strongly Negative!!
MINI LEYDEN JAR Plastic becomes dipolar as electrons repel from negative water
MINI LEYDEN JAR Foil becomes positive as electrons are grounded through you
MINI LEYDEN JAR Electrons travel from Nail to Foil through you
