1. The outer electrons in metals are not tightly bound to the atomic nuclei. They are free to roam in the material. Such materials are good (conductors) (insulators). ... 2. A rubber rod that has been rubbed with fur is negatively charged because rubber holds electrons better than fur does. ... 3. In the examples above,

A very simple setup was developed by Michael Foster, in Los Angeles, USA, in 2001, to produce long sparks by frictional electricity. He used nothing more than a long PVC tube, ... Electrostatic machines are electromechanical devices that produce "static electricity", or electricity at continuous (DC) high voltage.
