Could a few invisible sparks be powerful enough to ring a bell? ⚡🔔 In this incredible Chitti at School episode, we're recreating a classic experiment from the brilliant mind of Benjamin Franklin!
Watch as we use a simple DIY Van de Graaff generator to create static electricity, then use that charge to make a tiny metal clapper swing back and forth, ringing two suspended bells!
Chitti will explain the mind-blowing science behind this experiment. You'll learn all about static electricity, charge, and discharge, and how the metal balls and the clapper are constantly attracting and repelling each other to produce that magical chime.
It's a mesmerizing and fun demonstration that proves static electricity is more than just a shocking surprise—it's a powerful and fundamental force of nature!
