Priestley's
Electrostatic Machine
As part
of the Challenge of 'Priestley's Physics Project'
students are expected to undertake a wider Internet
search of Physics resources, and a review of their
mathematics skills in preparation for further
study.
If you
are a student, get
started on the project.
Teachers; find
out more.
This
project was inspired by Priestley's Electrical Machine,
an exhibit in the Science Museum in London.
The site explores Priestley’s achievements and offers
an outline of the early discoveries into the nature
of electricity.
You will find experimental research and presentation
tasks rooted in our present day understanding of these
early observations.
