Van der Graaf Genrator Questions....?
Please explain in CLEAR and SIMPLE language the following questions:
1. I was wondering how a van der graaf generator works..
2. What happens when you put a hand on it ....
3. Why hair goes suddenly down when you take the hand off (without going on the ground)
4. Why hair goes suddenly down when you take the hand off and step to the ground...
5. Why, when the vdgg and an oppositely charged object are brought in contact, after touching, they move away..
Thanks, Have a good afternoon
1) The generator consists of a belt of silk that is driven by an electric motor and brushes against a metal comb inside the globe at the top. This friction charges the globe with static electricity which is high in voltage but low in charge (Amps). It's therefore safe to touch.
2) When you put your hand on it, the static charge enters your body and negatively charges your hairs, making them stand on end as they repel one another. The charge will build up if you stand on a rubber mat to insulate yourself from the ground.
3 & 4) The charge needs to be running constantly through your body in order to keep your hairs on end, so if you take your hand off, or step off the mat (touch the ground), the charge leaves your body. This means your hairs no longer repel each other.
5) It's a well known fact in physics that opposites attract, and sames repel. For this reason, the generator should be attracted to oppositely charged objects. It could be a result of the other object taking a charge from the generator and becoming the same charge (i.e Negative). This would then cause the two to repel.
Hope this helps
