Pie Tins

Pie tins on a vandegraff
PIRA: 5A40.22

Materials: Pie Tins, Vandegraff

This demo is to show how materials with the same charge oppose one another. You put a stack of 5-6 pie tins on top of the vandegraff turn it on and the pie tins will fly off because they picked up the negative charge and oppose one another.
