11. Annoying Tape. –Teacher gives each student 2 long pieces (10 centimeters each) strips of clear tape. Make non-stick handles by folding a small amount tape on itself. Copyright © 2010 Ryan P. Murphy

12. Annoying Tape. –Teacher gives each student 2 long pieces (10 centimeters each) strips of clear tape. Make non-stick handles by folding a small amount tape on itself. –Stick one piece of tape to table. –Stick the other piece of tape on that tape. –Quickly pull tape from table and then apart. –Observe what happens to the tape when it gets close to each other and then eventually your arm. Try and dispose of in trash barrel by shaking the tape from your hand and not picking. Copyright © 2010 Ryan P. Murphy

14. What happened!

15. –When you removed the tape from the table you gave it an electrical charge. When you peeled the tape apart from each other, one piece of tape gained more of a charge than the other.

16. What happened! –When you removed the tape from the table you gave it an electrical charge. When you peeled the tape apart from each other, one piece of tape gained more of a charge than the other. Opposite charges attract (+) (-)

17. Annoying Tape. –Teacher gives each student 2 long pieces (10 centimeters each) strips of clear tape. Make non-stick handles by folding a small amount tape on itself. –Stick both pieces of tape to table. –Quickly pull tape from table. –Observe what happens to the tape when it gets close to each other and then eventually your arm.

19. What happened?

20. –Each piece of tape gained a negative charge when removed from the table. When they were brought close together they moved away from each other.

21. What happened? –Each piece of tape gained a negative charge when removed from the table. When they were brought close together they moved away from each other. Like charges repel. (-) (-)

22. Electrostatic Charges! Life occurs because of electrostatic charges.

26. Activity- Bad Hair Day Demonstration! –Rub balloon all around your head. –Question: Why does this happen? Copyright © 2010 Ryan P. Murphy

27. Answer! –Electrons from your body move into the balloon. –This gives you a positive charge. –Your hair is also positive. –Like charges repel so hair tries to get away from body. Copyright © 2010 Ryan P. Murphy

28. Demonstration - Static Electricity –Observe two balloons without a build up of a charge. Copyright © 2010 Ryan P. Murphy

35. Activity! Static Balloons Copyright © 2010 Ryan P. Murphy

36. Activity! Static Balloons –2 students blow up a balloon and tie it off. –Students rub balloon against hair and quickly stick to wall (at same time). –Observe what happens….. –Whose balloon will last the longest? Copyright © 2010 Ryan P. Murphy

37. Answer!

38. –Electrons from hair are removed and put into balloon.

39. Answer! –Electrons from hair are removed and put into balloon. –Balloon has slight negative charge.

40. Answer! –Electrons from hair are removed and put into balloon. –Balloon has slight negative charge. –The atoms orient and wall has slight positive charge.

41. Answer! –Electrons from hair are removed and put into balloon. –Balloon has slight negative charge. –The atoms orient and wall has slight positive charge. –Opposite charges attract and balloon sticks.

43. We usually only notice static electricity in the winter when the air is very dry.

44. We usually only notice static electricity in the winter when the air is very dry. During the summer, the air is more humid.

45. –The water in the air helps electrons move off you more quickly, so you can’t build up a large static charge.
