The Physics Question of the Week
From the University of Maryland Department of Physics. Each week a new question will be posted and
the answer for the previous Question of the Week will be shown. The questions involve real
experimental physics, so part of the answers will be photographs and short videos of the
experiments carried out in determining the results.

Industrial Electrostatics Demonstrations
The project described at this web page was undertaken to develop a set of demonstrations having
clear relevance to manufacturing and commercial operations. Some of these demonstrations should
also serve to augment the science teacher's or hobbyist's bag of tricks by making it easier to
reinforce the relationship between basic principles and practical situations.
