Curriculum expectations

  • C2.1 — explain commonly observed electrostatic phenomena, using the principles of static electricity

Brief

This lesson asks you to explain electrostatic phenomena that people commonly observe, using the principles of static electricity. The museum holds no record that serves this expectation yet, so this lesson offers no cards. 1

How do you build an explanation?

Take an effect you have seen yourself. Write what you saw, then the principle of static electricity you think explains it, then why that principle fits what you saw.
