Pith Ball

Product Code : JL-LE-10448

The Pith Ball (SKU JL-LE-10448, Cat. No. JSS-747/07) is a pith ball apparatus for showing static electricity in class. Two light pith balls hang on unspun silk from a plated brass pillar that stands on a plastic base. Bring a charged rod close and the balls are attracted; once they share the same charge they push apart, a simple way to show that like charges repel.

Frequently asked questions

Why are the balls hung on unspun silk?
Silk is a good insulator, so the charge given to the balls stays on them instead of leaking away through the thread.

What does the apparatus demonstrate?
Attraction of the light balls by a charged rod and repulsion between the two balls once they carry the same charge.
