Fun with Static Electricity

Dr. Forrester guides viewers through a series of experiments demonstrating static electricity using a balloon, cereal, and water. The video explains how static electricity works, contrasting it with current electricity, and highlights the importance of the scientific method in conducting experiments. The experiments illustrate the attraction and repulsion of objects due to static charges and the safe handling of electricity.

Describe the difference between static electricity and current electricity as mentioned in the text.

What safety precautions should be taken when working with current electricity near water?
