After watching the demos AND contemplating some of your own experiences with static electricity, answer the following questions in a comment on this blog post:
- What was your favorite static electricity demo? Why?
- What time of the year do you get "shocked" the most often? Why is that?
- What is needed to produce static electricity? What is it caused by?
- What does static electricity have to do with chemistry, atoms, and an atom's structure?
1.the generator one because it was fun to get shocked
ReplyDelete2.winter, its dry in the air
3.friction, electrons are moving
4.the electrons moving
Seeing everyone scream. It was funny. Winter because it is the most dry in the winter. Friction between two objects. It doesn't work when there are water molecules floating in the air.
ReplyDeleteI dont know my favorite electricity demo
ReplyDeleteWinter because it´s more dry
electrons and protons
because it deals with protons and nuetrons.
This one at the washington pavillion were we lit up a light by holding hands. You get shocked the most in winter because the air is dry. you need to loose electrons from atoms. static electricity has to do with chemistry because it is stripping atoms of their electrons.
ReplyDelete1. When everyone was holding hands and it kept shocking people!
ReplyDelete2. I would think probably fall or maybe summer because it's dry out during my seasons.
3. It has to do with how the atom is negatively charged and that will make you shock people.
The VanDeGraff because it produced electrons and gave you a shock. Winter cause their isn't a lot of water molecules in the air. Electrons because it happens cause friction. It involves electrons, protons, and neutrons inside the atom to get static electricity.
ReplyDelete1. the generator one because it looked like a lighting bolt when someone got shocked.
ReplyDelete2. winter because it is dry.
3. friction
4. It has to do with friction causes the shocked but electrons and protons need friction.
My favorite static electricity demo was when we all chocked each other from the giant silver ball. Fall or Winter is when you get shocked the most often because that's when it's the most dry. Electrons are needed to produce static electricity this is caused by air building up. This has to do with the atom's structure because that is where it all happens.
ReplyDelete1.The one with the ball, because it was fun to see how long the electricity would extend.
ReplyDelete2.You get shocked the most often in the winter, because it is more dry and is easier to produce electricity.
3.Static electricity is caused by an imbalance of protons and neutrons. A good conductor of electricity is needed to do this.
4.It has to do with that because it is is involved with atoms because it has protons and neutrons that are imbalance, and all of that junk has to do with the atoms structure, like the electrons, protons, and neutrons, and atoms are a part of chemistry, so it is all connected.
1. the electro static generater because josko kept going OW!! every two seconds haha
ReplyDelete2.Winter because it is less humid
3. electrons, the electrons jump to the other electrons and create
4. atoms are inside of everything this goes along with our topic, Atoms
the ball because i got to hold Mr. hoeghs hand. ;just kidding because i got to shock people A LOT. You get shocked a lot when its really dry. Electrons and protons. the electons jump from thing to thing and once it touches something it becomes a neutral
ReplyDeleteHoegh shocked me
ReplyDeleteFall. its dry
A positive and negative charge flow of electrons
it is the flow of electrons from one atom to another
1. when we got to put our hand close to it. because it was fun to see how far away it can shock you.
ReplyDelete2. in the winter because its really dry
3. friction. things rapidly rubbing together really fast.
4. the electrons cause it.
1. the van de graaff thing, because it's probably the coolest and the most hands on.
ReplyDelete2.isn't it in the fall because that time of year it is dry.
3. positive charge, and electrons.
4. it's caused partly because of atoms and electrons.
The Van de graaff experiment was really good
ReplyDeleteFall. Don't know why
Positive atoms and negative atoms.
The electric charge of an atom.
1. The part when Mr. Hoegh touched the electric ball thing and then someone hooked hands with him and then you could still shock someone through that.
ReplyDelete2. Probably the winter because it gets really dry.
3.Dry weather and protons and neutrons. When electrons transfer to protons.
4. Because the protons and neutrons are what we are learning about and they causing the static electricity.
1. when Mr.Hoegh touched the ball thingy
ReplyDelete2.winter because the weather is dry
3.dry weather; trancefer of protons and neutrons.
4. It is the trancefer of protons and neutrons
1. My favorite demo was the one where we got to touch the generator. I got a good shock so it was fun.
ReplyDelete2. Winter, because it builds up the best at this time.
3. The build up of excess charge and when electrons bounce around to try and balance it.
4. It has a lot to do with the subatomic particles of atoms because that is how they're formed.
1. My favorite static electricity demo was van de graaff machine because it was cool to see how it went through people to others around you.
ReplyDelete2. In the winter because there is less humidity in the air.
3. To make static electricity you need friction between to objects.
4. Static electricity had to do with atoms because it's the electrons touching each other and chemistry because it deals with atoms.
1.electron machine that shocks you, cause it is really fun.
ReplyDelete2.winter, cause it is dryer
3.positive and negitive charge
4.it is the electrons shocking you.
1.when you put the rod up to the vanda graph and it lit up
ReplyDelete2.in the summer because it is hotter out
3.positive and negative attractions
4.the electrons make it shock you.
My favorite static electricity was the vandagraph experiment because it was really fun.
ReplyDeleteThe time of year you get shocked in is close to Christmas and Fall. because it is really dry out in those seasons.
Static electricity is a kind of altering current. It dose't just go in one direction it goes in all directions. It rubs together to create friction.
atoms are in the electricity so is protons because they are a positive charge.
1. My favorite static electricity demo was when Mr.Hoegh touched the vandegraph and we all stood in a line and the electricity went through everybody.
ReplyDelete2.The time of year you get shocked more often is winter because its so dry.
3.When an electrical charge builds up due to friction between two object.
4. A static charge builds up between the electrons.
I liked the Vand de graaff! Because it shocked people and it was funny! Winter because the air is dry. Friction and it is caused by the surface roughness of the contact area. Because there is static electricity everywhere.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite static electricity demo was the van degraaff thingy, when you shocked mason. I get shocked most probably in the fall or winter. Static electricity is caused by atoms being rubbed together. Static electricity is electricity that does not flow in a current. Static electricity is part of chemistry because it has to do with atoms.
ReplyDelete1.whole class chain. you could feel the electricity running through you.
ReplyDelete2.winter coldest so most protons can travel the best
3. positive and negative charge
4.atoms have the positive charge you need and atoms are in chemistry
I really liked the one where Mr.Hoegh touched the electric ball thing well plus it was the only one that I saw.
ReplyDeleteIn the winter time because it's the most dry time of the year.
electrons and protons, positive and negative charges.
Because the electrons and protons are in atoms and we are talking about atoms!
My favorite demo was with the van de graaff. I liked it because because you could see it shocking people. It was funny! You get shocked the most in winter because it is drier than in summer. To produce static electricity you need electrons because they would give other atoms a negative charge. Chemistry, atoms and their structure, have to deal with static electricity because atoms are the basis of chemistry, and atoms contain electrons.
ReplyDelete1. The metal ball because it didn't involve me getting a balloon rubbed on my head.
ReplyDelete2.You get shocked most often in the winter because of the dry weather and friction that causes heat so it makes a shock
3.Static electricity causes your hair to stand up, it also can give you a big or little shock depended on the amount of static.
4. Electricity is the jumping of electrons from one atom to another
1. I liked the last one we did last with the van de graaff it was really fun!
ReplyDelete2. Winter because of the dryness of the air
3. an excess of electric charge trapped on the surface of an object,because materials are made of atoms that are normally electrically neutral because they contain equal numbers of positive charges and negative charges
4.Electricity is the transfer of electrons from one atom to another.
1. the vandi graph cause it was finny when people got shocked from it.
ReplyDelete2.summer cause when its really hot say in your house your balnket will get full of static electricity and shock u alot.
3.anything with a lot of electrons its caused my electron jumping of and shocking you.
1. I liked the Van de graaff generator, because it was cool to see the static electricity go through people and light up that rod thing.
ReplyDelete2. Winter, because the air is really dry at that time of year.
3. You need two objects rubbing together, to cause friction. It is caused by the electrons jumping to a nearby by atom and it creates a current.
4. Electricity is caused when electrons get attracted to a different atoms protons, and the electrons jump to the nearby atom.
1. the ball thingy when we touched each other and got shocked
ReplyDelete2. winter because the air is dry in the winter but in the summer the air is humid
3. a positive and negative charge people
4. because protons are postive and nutrons are negative and u need positive and negative charge to create static electricity
when i touched the metal thing i there was some lighting and shocked me. winter because it is cold outside. protons, and when u touch protons with other protons? it has to do with protons
ReplyDelete1. My favorite static electricity demo was the one with the big static thing. I liked it because it was fun.
ReplyDelete2. The time of the year when I get shocked most often is Winter because that is when there is the most electric charge.
3. Electrons, and it is caused by electric charge.
4. Electrons are part of what causes or is needed for electric charge, and electrons are in an atoms structure.
1. To see the long tube be lit up by the electricity
ReplyDelete2. Winter, because the air is more dry
3. Static electricity is caused by protons and electrons reacting with one another, and when Atoms of different objects rub against each other.
4. The atom is related to static electricity because an atom has protons and electrons and static electricity needs those 2 things to form.
1. the electric globe. i had little lightning bolts shooting out of my fingers!!!!!
ReplyDelete2. Winter. i think because its really dry and there is hardly any water in the air so it makes it easier for electricity to be produced.
3. atoms. static electricity is caused by electrons of the atoms rubbing against each other.
4. it makes lightning. it is just one of the many awesome things atoms can make
1)the Van De Graff, because it showed lighting touching people.
ReplyDelete2)the winter, because when your inside its really dry.
3)static, and something thats dry, and atoms.
4)atoms are one of the main causes for static elecricity.
1.The ball that would shock Mr. Hoegh was cool. It got his toe, lol. Also it was pretty cool how it would travel too.
ReplyDelete2.Winter, it makes the air more dry than the summer.
3.To have two atoms conect or something, I think.
4.Electricity has to do with the electrons where they are either apart from each other or together.
1.) My favorite demo is by far the balloon and hair, seeing the electricity go through people is pretty cool.
ReplyDelete2.)Winter, because you are less moist, so more charge is able to come.
3.) Electrical charge! It is caused by atoms rubbing together, bunching the electrons.
4.)The electricity is caused by atoms, it is rubbing their atoms together, making the electrons bunch up and cause electric charge.
1.) when mr hoegh got shocked and it went through his toes.
ReplyDelete2.)Winter
3.) Atoms ; electrical charge
4.)the electricity is made up of atoms rubbing together
i liked the electricity ball because it was cool and interesting because it went through lots of people and you still got shocked
ReplyDeleteYou get shocked most in the winter because the winter air is very dry and summer air is more humid the humid air helps electrons move more quickly so they cannot build static
It needs positive and negative charge and it is caused by static friction and atoms
atoms are the main cause for static electricity
1. Seeing the lightning go through people was pretty legit.
ReplyDelete2. Winterrrr! Because.. your skin isn't as moist and you aren't sweating as much and stuff.
3. Electrical charge! Positive and negative charges. and electrons and protons. Opposites attracts. ;D
4. Electricity is atoms rubbing together.
1)Rubbing the balloon in our hair or trying to move the popsicle stick or the electrostaic generator.
ReplyDelete2)In the winter, because when it is humid there ins't as much static and in the winter the air is dry.
3)Electrons rubbing against each other.
4) The Electrons make the eletricity and they are on the outer part of the atom.
1.The balloon because I was scared to touch the ball, and it was cool to see peoples hair stand up.
ReplyDelete2.Winter because the air is dry.
3.Electrons rubbing against each other.
4.The electrons make up the electricity because they are on the outer shell of the atom. They would be the first to break off.
When we got shocked. it went through me and shacked logan. good to!!!
ReplyDeleteWinter because its more dry.
Positive negitive change and electrons
because and the postive change
my favorite static electricity demo was the generator, because it was sooooo funny to watch Mr. Hoegh. Winter is the most time of the year you would get shocked, because the air is dry. Needed to produce static electricity is to rub two thing together, and what causes thats is to electrons rubbing against each other! electrons are in atoms wich is in electricity!
ReplyDeletethe demo with the globe. It was fun to shock people and see the little tiny lightning.
ReplyDeleteYou get shocked more in winter, because winter is dry and summer is humid the high humidity makes the electrons move more quickly so they cant produce static.
you would have to have neutrons and protons from atom and everything is made of atoms. its caused from electrons moving from one object to the other creating static build up.
if everything wasnt made of atoms we wouldnt have any static
My favorite one was when we got to touch it with our hands.
ReplyDeleteWinter because their isn't enough water in the air to cause friction
To produce static electricity you need water to cause friction.
electricity is made up of atoms and atom structures.
