In this video segment adapted from ZOOM, cast members show you how to make your very own electroscope. You can use it to find out if an object is electrically charged. [4:17]

How do Newton's Laws connect with electrical forces? This overview illustrates how they blend together. After studying this explanation, test understanding with the review questions provided.

From the ESD Journal website. This page describes the industrial and medical risks associated with the buildup of static charge. The investigation of the electric potential created by such accumulated charges and the materials...

Aided by tools such as static electricity machines and Leyden jars, scientists continue their experiments into the fundamentals of magnetism and electricity.

In the modern world, virtually everyone is familiar with electricity as an accessible, essential form of energy. In electricity's earlier days, scientists used the buildup and release of static electricity.

Learn about conductors and electric fields in static equilibrium.

In this learning module, students will observe interactions between objects, including objects with electric charges to identify patterns in how things interact.

A large complete authoritative biography of Coulomb. Five large pictures, over a dozen links to contemporaries, references, a poster, other mathematicians. A fine source.
