Electrostatic pendulum Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India

Product Code : SCL-EI-10677

The Electrostatic Pendulum is a physics laboratory apparatus used for demonstrating electrostatic attraction, repulsion, charge transfer, and induction using a lightweight suspended bob. It is suitable for schools, colleges, STEM labs, physics practical rooms, teacher demonstrations, distributors, and educational laboratory procurement buyers.

Product Description

The Electrostatic pendulum from Lab Glassware Manufacturer is intended for classroom electrostatics experiments where students observe how a charged object affects a freely suspended light body. The supplied product name confirms an electrostatic pendulum, but bob material, stand design, thread type, base material, and dimensions must be confirmed before final publication.

An electrostatic pendulum is commonly used with charged rods, friction pads, electrostatic generators, and charge plates. It helps students distinguish attraction from repulsion, understand induced charge, and see how electrostatic force can move a small suspended object without direct mechanical contact.

Key Features

• Electrostatics demonstration apparatus: shows attraction, repulsion, charge transfer, and induction in a visible classroom format.
• Suspended bob arrangement: uses a lightweight pendulum format.
• Suspended bob arrangement: uses a lightweight pendulum body for observing electrostatic movement.
• Teacher-friendly setup: suitable for demonstrations before introducing advanced charge-measurement instruments.
• STEM learning value: supports observation, prediction, comparison, and discussion of electric charge behaviour.
• Capacity not applicable: this is a physics demonstration apparatus, not a liquid-volume product.
• Compatible experiment use: can be used with charged rods, friction materials, and electrostatic apparatus where suitable.
• Specification-dependent construction: bob material, stand height, thread length, and storage details must be verified.

How to Use the Electrostatic Pendulum

1. Place the electrostatic pendulum on a dry, stable laboratory bench.
2. Confirm the bob moves freely and does not touch the stand or base.
3. Charge a suitable rod using the approved friction material.
4. Bring the charged rod near the pendulum bob without touching it.
5. Observe attraction, movement, or deflection of the bob.
6. Touch the charged rod to the bob if the experiment requires charge transfer.
7. Move the rod away and observe whether the bob is attracted or repelled.
8. Discharge the bob safely before repeating the experiment.

Safety note: Use under teacher supervision. Keep the apparatus dry, avoid high-voltage supplies unless specifically approved, and keep electrostatic generators away from pacemakers, sensitive electronics, flammable vapours, and wet surfaces.

Care & Maintenance

• Store the pendulum dry and protected from dust and impact.
• Keep the bob and suspension thread clean for consistent movement.
• Do not bend the stand or pull the thread forcefully.
• Remove from use if the bob is damaged, thread breaks, base becomes unstable, or movement is restricted.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is an Electrostatic Pendulum used for?

An Electrostatic Pendulum is used to demonstrate electrostatic attraction, repulsion, charge transfer, and induction in physics experiments.

How does an electrostatic pendulum work?

A charged object near the pendulum bob produces electrostatic force, causing the bob to move, attract, or repel depending on charge conditions.

What material is the bob made from?

The bob material is not confirmed. Add pith, foil, cork, plastic, or metal-coated material only after checking the final product specification.

Does it include charged rods?

Charged rod inclusion is not confirmed. List rods or friction cloth only if they are supplied with the final kit.

Can it show both attraction and repulsion?

Yes. It can show attraction and repulsion when the bob and external object are charged under suitable classroom conditions.

Is it suitable for school physics labs?

Yes. It is suitable for supervised school and college electrostatics practicals, teacher demonstrations, and STEM activities.
