Faraday Ice Pail Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India

Faraday Ice Pail

Product Code : ILS-PLE-10199

Indian Lab Suppliers supplies the Faraday Ice Pail (Product ID: 10199) as part of its physics lab equipment range. It demonstrates electrostatic induction on a conducting container, the experiment Faraday first did with a metal ice pail.

Quick Answer

The set has four painted tin pails that nest inside one another. When a charged object is lowered into a pail without touching it, an equal and opposite charge is induced on the inner surface and a matching charge of the same sign appears on the outside, which an electroscope connected to the pail can show. Removing the object makes the reading fall back, while touching it to the inside transfers all of its charge to the outer surface.
