Activity 1: Experiments with Sticky Tape The experiments in this activity will help you investigate the properties of electric charge. Conduct the experiments with care, repeating each one till you are confident that your observations are accurate and consistent. Carefully note down the observations in the space provided. You will need some ordinary Scotch Magic tape and some common materials to complete this activity. I: Take a piece of Scotch Magic tape two or three inches long. One end of the tape should be folded over to provide a handle that does not stick to your fingers. _.. A: (2 points] Stick the piece of tape down on a clean, smooth, dry surface (plastic works well} and quickly pull it off. Describe your observations of what happens when you bring this tape near other objects (pen, hand etc} B: {2 points} Prepare another piece of tape similar to the first. Stick both pieces of tape to the same clean, smooth, dry surface and quickly pull them off. Glass and plastic surfaces work well, but you should also get good results from a wooden desk, lampshades etc. Describe your observations of what happens when you bring these tapes near each other. How does the interaction depend on the separation between the pieces of tape? C: (2 points) Repeat Experiment B with two more different clean, smooth, dry surfaces. List all three surfaces that you used and describe any differences that you observed. Surface 1: Surface 2: Surface 3
