  3. Leyden jar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leyden_jar

    The Leyden jar was used to conduct many early experiments in electricity, and its discovery was of fundamental importance in the study of electrostatics. It was the first means of accumulating and preserving electric charge in large quantities that could be discharged at the experimenter's will, thus overcoming a significant limit to early ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faraday's_ice_pail_experiment

    A metal object C (Faraday used a brass ball suspended by a nonconductive silk thread, [1] but modern experiments often use a small metal ball or disk mounted on an insulating handle [4]) is charged with electricity using an electrostatic machine and lowered into the container A without touching it. As it is lowered the charge detector's reading ...

    For children in the age range 10−13, batteries are used to illustrate the connection between chemistry and electricity as well as to deepen the circuit concept for electricity. The fact that different chemical elements such as copper and zinc are used can be placed in the larger context that the elements do not disappear or break down when ...
