Section 1: The Atom and Charging Subatomic Particle Charges e: p: n:
Conductors: Demos: Find materials in the room that are conductors Line up washer and charge with high voltage Charge distilled water, city water and Gadorate Pass charge through bike tire Insulators: Demos: Place a charge on a balloon and notice charge location. Have students charge a letter and then do the same. Ask how a copier works. Use VDG to see of charge Is confined to areas
Ways to Charge an object 1) Charge by Contact or (friction):___________________________________
Triboelectric Series: A List that ranks materials according to how well they charge either (+) or (-). (refer to hand out) • + POSITIVE END OF SERIES (materials with lower work function) • asbestos • glass • nylon • wool • lead • silk • aluminum • paper • cotton • steel • hard rubber • nickel & copper • brass & silver • synthetic rubber • orlon • saran • polyethylene • teflon • silicone rubber • - NEGATIVE END OF SERIES (materials with higher work function)
Charge by Polarization: Force between Charges: Demo: Have students hold balloons with charge to eachother. Electrons and Electrons:_________ Protons and Protons:____________ Electrons and Protons:___________
Extension Activities: Pie Pan Activity: 1) Describe How to make the aluminum ball bounce back and forth when you touch the ball. 2) Describe why the aluminum ball bounces back and forth when you touch it.
