Electric Charge

Mr. Anderson explains electric charge, starting with static electricity on playgrounds and the conservation of charge. He discusses historical experiments with amber and pith balls, leading to Benjamin Franklin's work on charge types. The video covers the concept of current and simple circuits, emphasizing the conservation of charge and practical applications like a lemon clock.
