Outcomes

  • Pupils can describe dangers and uses of electrostatic charge

Specification References

  • 2.23 explain electrostatic phenomena in terms of the movement of electrons
  • 2.24 recall the potential dangers of electrostatic charges, e.g. when fuelling aircraft and tankers
  • 2.25 recall some uses of electrostatic charges, e.g. in photocopiers and inkjet printers

Starter

  • Revise charging by friction and induction using the Van de Graff generator.
