The Wimshurst Machine is a powerful demonstration tool for creating static electrical charge and generating high voltage sparks. This apparatus features durable, clear acrylic charging discs, plastic upright supports, Leyden jars, and pulleys resistant to breakage. Aluminum sheets mounted on the acrylic discs create the charge when circulated past metal brushes. Under proper weather conditions, the machine can produce sparks up to 2 inches long. Investigate factors affecting spark length, demonstrate the creation of static electricity and high voltage sparks, and study the effect of weather conditions on spark production. An instruction guide is included for safe and effective use. Replacement belts are also available for maintenance.
