Science Worksheet pt.2
Storyboard Text
- English chemist and physicist who was shy and absent-minded. He was terrified of women, and communicated with his female servants by notes. He performed numerous scientific investigations, but published only twenty articles and no books
- Cavendish took a different approach. In his experimental set up, Cavendish did not measure electrostatic force; he simply confirmed their lack of. That is, he confirmed the following phenomena, which is now very well known:” A charged conductor produces no electric field in its interior.”
- If the intensity of electric force was inversely related to distance, then excess electric fluid would lay on the outer surface of an electrified sphere.
- A conducting sphere is suspended within another conducting sphere, which can be separated into two hemispheres by hinges, with the use of insulating frames. Both conductors are uncharged at first. The inner and outer spheres are connected by a conducting wire. After that, the outer sphere was charged, and the wire was severed with a silk thread. An electrometer was used to measure the charge of the inner sphere once the outer sphere had beendisassembled.
