First I showed the class how to bend water with static energy. We blew up balloons. Then rub the balloons on our hair to charge the energy. Then we took turns placing the balloons near the water coming out of a tap.
The result was the water bent slightly when the class placed their balloons near the running water. It didn't work so well with people who had shorter hair- less current.
The other experiment I showed the class was using the same balloon to make pepper jump. This worked really well. The pepper jumped and stuck on the balloons. The people with longer hair - the experiment worked better for them again.
Great work Ollie. I love how you were able to get up and tell the class all about static energy - something that really interests you! And boy you look good in the teachers chair - Mrs McCallum better watch her job, it looks like someone else might take it over!!!!; )
