CERTIFICATE
This is to certify that the PHYSICS project titled
“Electromagnetic Induction” has been
successfully completed by Surendranathan.K
of class Xll, Velammal Surapet School, in the
partial fulfillment by Central Board Of
Secondary Education (CBSE) leading to the
award of the annual examination of the year
2023 -2024
MATERIALS REQUIRED:-
➢ Small size identical balls (pitch or soft plastic)
➢ Physical balance or electronic balance
➢ Halfmeter Scale
➢ Cotton thread
➢ Stand
➢ Glass rod (or plastic rod)
➢ Silk cloth (or wollen cloth)
THEORY:-
The fundamental concept in electrostatics is electrical charge. We
are all familiar with the fact that rubbing two materials together —
for example, a rubber comb on cat fur — produces a “static”
charge. This process is called charging by friction. Surprisingly,
the exact physics of the process of charging by friction is poorly
understood. However, it is known that the making and breaking of
contact between the two materials transfers the charge.

PROCEDURE:-
1) Weight the mass of each identical pitch balls by balance and
note down it.
2) Tie the balls with two silk or cotton threads and suspend at a
point on a stand or a rigid support. Measure the length of
threads by half meter scale. The length of threads should be
equal. Note down the length.
3) Rub the glass rod with silk cloth and touch with both balls
together so that the balls acquired equal charge.
4) Suspend the balls freely and the balls stay away a certain
distance between the balls when they become stationary.
Note down the distance.
5) Touch any one suspended ball with other uncharged third
ball and takes the third ball away and repeat the step 4.
6) Touch other suspended ball with other uncharged fourth ball
and takes the fourth ball away and repeat the step 4.
OBSERVATION:-
1. Mass of each ball,(m) = g.
2. Radius of each ball,(r) = mm.
3. Length of each thread,(l) = cm.

Calculations:-
By using the relation

RESULTS:-
The charge on each ball = C
PRECAUTIONS:-
1. The suspended balls should not be touched by any
conducting body.
2. Rub the glass rod properly with the silk cloth to produce
more charge.
3. Weight the mass of the balls accurately.
SOURCE OF ERROR:-
1. The balls may not be of equal size and mass.
2. The distance between the balls may be measured
accurately.
