Bring the charged ruler near one edge of the paper (but do not touch it). The paper will begin to spin towards the ruler. 4. Scientific Explanation (Why it works)

Use a balloon to lift small confetti paper off a table. Download Static Activity

Fold the paper square diagonally in both directions, then unfold it, creating a small, raised center point. Bring the charged ruler near one edge of

Rub the plastic ruler or comb vigorously against the woolen item for 15–20 seconds. This creates a net negative charge. Scientific Explanation (Why it works) Use a balloon

Scientific Investigation: Static Electricity Spinning Paper Experiment 1. Introduction and Objective

Conduct the experiment in a dry room, as moisture in the air causes the static charge to dissipate more quickly. To make this paper even more detailed, I can:

Add a for tracking how long the charge lasts based on different materials (plastic vs. vinyl). Add safety tips regarding static shock. Suggest a discussion guide for students. Let me know what you'd like to add! Six Activities with Static Electricity
