PART IV Conduction of Solids Place a metal rod across the mouth of a glass beaker. Suspend a pith ball so that it is in contact with one end of the rod. Touch a negatively charged rod to the end of the metal rod away from the pith ball. Predict what will happen when the metal rod is touched by your hand. Test your prediction. Replace the metal rod with a glass rod and repeat the procedure. Determine if charge is transfered to the glass rod.
PART IV Conduction of Solids 10. (a) Describe the results when one end of the metal rod is touched by the negatively charged rod. (b) Explain the movement of charge that has occurred. 11. (a) What occurs when the metal rod is grounded? (b) Describe the movement of charge that has occurred. 12. (a) What is observed when the glass rod is touched by the charged rod?__ (b) Is charge transfered to the glass rod from the charged rod?. (c) Explain how you tested for charge on the glass rod.
