Basic Variable Capacitor
Basic Variable CapacitorParallel plate capacitor permits a quantitative investigation of the Q=CV relationship.
Charge Producers and Proof Plane
Charge Producers and Proof PlaneUsed to create equal positive and negative charges when rubbed together.
Charge, Equipotential and Field Mapper
Charge, Equipotential and Field MapperDraw any set of two-dimensional conductors and investigate the electric field and the equipotential lines between and around the conductive paper.
Classic Electrostatics Materials Kit
Classic Electrostatics Materials KitKit contains three rods (acrylic, glass, PVC), two stands, and three cloth materials (wool, silk, fur).
Coated Pith Balls (Set of 10)
Coated Pith Balls (Set of 10)These threaded pith balls are coated with a conductive material. Suspend two pith balls from a rod and charge with the Electrostatic Materials SE-6658.

Conductive Paper (no Grid)Replacement conductive paper for the Field Mapper Kit (PK-9023).
Conductive Paper with Grid
Conductive Paper with GridReplacement conductive paper with grid for the Field Mapper Kit (PK-9023).
Conductive Shapes
Conductive ShapesThese Conductive Shapes (one hollow and one conical) can be used to store charge or investigate the charge distribution on one or two spherical conductors.
Conductive Spheres
Conductive SpheresSpheres can be used to store charge or investigate the charge distribution on one or two spherical conductors.
Discharge Sphere
Discharge SphereSupported on a Lucite column with a cast iron base. Includes cabling for connection to the High Voltage Van de Graaff Generator or to ground.
Dissectible Leyden Jar
Dissectible Leyden JarThis Leyden Jar is designed for classroom demonstrations and comes with a durable inner and outer plate, a plastic dielectric, and instructions.
Electroscope
ElectroscopeShow the amount of charge and the sign of the charge relative to a standard. Includes charging ball plus a set of condenser plates with insulated rod.
Electrostatic Plume
Electrostatic PlumeLightweight ribbons are connected to a stand which rests on top of the High Voltage Van de Graaff Generator. Ribbons stand on end due to the repulsive force between their like charges.
Electrostatic Whirl
Electrostatic WhirlWhen connected to the sphere of the Van de Graaff Generator the spokes are propelled by charge leaving the points.
Electrostatics Materials
Electrostatics MaterialsThis electrostatics kit provides the necessary tools to separate positive and negative charges. Students can experiment with different combinations of cloth and rod materials to explore how each becomes charged.
Electrostatics Voltage Source
Electrostatics Voltage SourceThis voltage source is ideal for performing experiments in electrostatics.
Field Mapper Kit
Field Mapper KitAllows students to map both the potentials and the electric fields around any two-dimensional charged conductors.
