Document Summary
Took a rod of one material and scuffed it with a silk cloth and put it on a rotating stand. Took another rod of a different material and scuffed it with a silk cloth and put the rod near the first rod, which caused the first rod to be attracted to the second, making the first rod rotate. The second rod was pulling the first. He now took the second rod and put in on the stand after scuffing it. He took another rod (the same material as the second) and scuffed it. This time when he put it near the rod on the stand and it pushed the rod (without touching it) Q p = + 1. 6 x 10 -19 c. Charge itself comes in little packets and the smallest charge you can make it -1. 6 x 10 19 c. # of protons determines what element you have. If # of protons = # of electrons neutral atom.
