Post #2- Electric Effluvia

    When I walk into the tech classroom, I look at the smart board we’re it tells us what we have to do at the begging of class. I get to my seat and open up my iPad go to the website and log in, when I look the screen I see what it says on then board so it’s probably connected with the smart board. We started talking about an experiment, i’m happy because we never done an experiment before just talked about how the class is and works . He explained about what we are going to do today with pictures and words, were making a electric scope. An electric scope basically is, “The electric effluvia differ from the air, and as air is the earth’s effluvium, so electric bodies have their own distinctive effluvia.” After the lesson about the electric scope I was really excited to begin.

    Were doing this project with our tables, one person has to get the electric scope from our table, after that we started. This is what the electric scope looked like=

 

Before we try the electric scope we have to use our cloth to clean the pole for it to work. Now it’s time to begin, we are supposed to put the pole near the spiral but cant put it on just next to it without touching it and the paper in the jar is supposed to move. Someone at my table tries it right away and it works and then the next person tries and it works, it’s so cool. Now I give it a go and it doesn’t work I’m so annoyed so I use the cloth and rub it a lot and then I try again and it works it was so weirdbut cool. 

    After everyone tried it multiple times our teacher comes around putting papers and I’m so confused then he said to do the same thing but put your pole over the papers. I rub the cloth a lot on my pole because of what happen last time. It’s my time to go first, I’m curious if it’s gonna work. I put the pole over and the papers move around and stick to my pole, it’s so cool. Overall it was a interesting  and a fun experience.
