Van de Graff Generator

The Museum of Science and Energy in Oak Ridge, Tennessee introduces the Van de Graff Generator and static electricity! After they make everyone's hair rise, they create some serious sparks — another video worth watching.

The hair goes up because high electron density (number of electrons/volume)tends to move at a sharper points which is our hair tips.

Those are the generators that will power future air and space transport. For now, we have a lot to overcome, especially, the primitive survival instinct.

Can the metal part of the van de Graff generator be negatively charged or is it always positively charged?
