About This Product
Once the pith balls are charged they swing towards or away from each other, so students see attraction and repulsion between charges directly. The insulated pillar and silk threads keep the balls isolated from the base while the demonstration is carried out. The Pith Ball Electroscope can be dispatched from India to Chile, Malaysia, Cambodia, United States, Zimbabwe and Jordan.
