| The path of least resistance can often lead to complications and unexpected outcomes. This is certainly true of our creatively named "Lightning Leaper". We provide an insulating plate with two binding clips on either end for connecting to a Van de Graaff generator. On the plate's surface, an incomplete metallic path-with eight small gaps-is drawn in a zig zag pattern. Anyone can see that the shortest path between the binding clips is definitely not the metallic path. Yet, the discharge from the Van de Graaff follows just this path-watch as the electricity leaps over each gap!
This plate can be suspended from an insulating stand and connected at either end to a Van de Graaff generator. For hardier souls, it can be held in the hand close to the active Van de Graaff.
For maximum "bang", try in a darkened room. |
