Discover the fascinating world of static electricity through simple balloon experiments. You'll learn how static charges build up through friction, how they attract or repel objects, and see everyday ...

CASCADE, Mich. — Looking for a fun activity to do at home with your kids? This science experiment is fun for all ages and teaches static electricity during the wintertime! Meteorologist Isabella ...

(WJHL) Jon Krukelberg and Krissy Worth with Hands On! Discovery Center show us some fun activities using static electricity. For more information visit www.visithandson.org.

The film explores the concept of electricity, demonstrating how it can be generated through simple experiments such as rubbing different materials together. It explains the basics of electric currents ...

The imbalance of charges that takes place with this fun phenomenon typically happens when two different materials come into contact and then are separated. In the experience, one of the materials may ...

A century after Nikola Tesla sketched a turbine with no blades, researchers are now using that same counterintuitive design ...

A tiny worm turns static electricity into a powerful weapon, launching itself through the air to catch flying prey.

As humans we often think we have a pretty good handle on the basics of the way the world works, from an intuition about gravity good enough to let us walk around, play baseball, and land spacecraft on ...

A bladeless turbine design converts the static electricity naturally generated by dust particles in compressed air into ...

A parasitic worm uses static electricity to launch itself onto flying insects, a mechanism uncovered by physicists and biologists at Emory and Berkeley. By generating opposite charges, the worm and ...
