In my picture for my blog post, I took a picture of a Scotch® tape dispenser that’s in the shape of a lifesaver. This relates to what we’re learning in physics because we just did a Magic Tape Lab in order to find out which pieces of tape seemed to be charged or not. This lab also helped us understand the Charge-Force Law, which states that like charges will repel and unlike charges attract. I like to remember it as “opposites attract”. At the end of the lab my partner and I found that tape A and C had some type of charge, while tape B was neutral…meaning it had no charge at all. It was a good lab that physically showed how objects could have different charges depending on the situation.
Good post, it really seems like you understood the lab and the concepts.
ReplyDeleteI thought doing the lab was pretty nuts because I didn't know you could simply charge things by just "ripping" off electrons
