To understand materials, one must first understand electricity, and to understand electricity, one must first understand materials. Eighteenth century electricians understood neither, but they knew what it took to spark the interest of an audience an...d put on an electrifying show. Coulomb's law and the principles of static electricity. (5:18)

Professor Lewin of MIT speaks to a small group of children and their parents. His topics are electricity and magnetism. He pulls young students from the audience and gets them involved in the demonstrations. These are great demonstrations that teache...rs can use in their own classrooms easily (01:41:56).
