Energy Ball


This is a small ball that has two small metal electrodes. When the electrodes are touched simultaneously, the ball lights up and makes a sound. This is done when the electrodes are touched with anything that can conduct or carry electrodes. It is commonly used to demonstrate how open and closed circuits work.
