Electrostatics with Computer-Interfaced Charge Sensors

Peer reviewed

Direct link

Morse, Robert A. – Physics Teacher, 2006

Computer interfaced electrostatic charge sensors allow both qualitative and quantitative measurements of electrostatic charge but are quite sensitive to charges accumulating on modern synthetic materials. They need to be used with care so that students can correctly interpret their measurements. This paper describes the operation of the sensors,…
