Magnetic Kits
Product Code : JL-GLE-11224
Listed as Magnetic Kits, SKU JL-GLE-11224 is in fact a JaincoLab electrostatics kit: every part in the listing is for static-electricity work. Students charge polyethylene strips and plates by rubbing with the woollen cloth, hang metallised polystyrene spheres on nylon thread to see attraction and repulsion, and detect charge with the electroscope, whose leaves sit behind a 200 mm diameter case. The aluminium can and the plate with an insulating handle are used for charge transfer and induction.
