    How can I use electrostatics to collect dust in my home?

    ok, so if i understand right, if i was to get some large sheets of metal (which metal in particular? and what thickness? and can i powder-coat/paint it - or would that act as an insulator?) and I'm guessing there has to be some relationship between the size of these sheets and the voltage? and...

    Creating a Long-Lasting Static Charge to Attract Dust

    thanks for your reply. where should the insulating tape go? and what material would be best to use? oil will be no good as it needs to be dry. so the insulating tape goes around something, but what? and I'm not sure what my charge source could be, or how it would be attached to the surface...

    How can I use electrostatics to collect dust in my home?

    hi, i'm trying to find a way to attract small dust particles in a household environment to a surface. i have no physics and no engineering skills whatsoever so this is all new to me, but what i am wanting to do is have a surface with a constant charge, as perhaps this is the way to achieve this...

    Can Electrostatic Charge Attract Dust in a Household Environment?

    hi, I've been reading the thread of your conversation around electrostatic dust and I'm actually trying to find a way to attract small dust particles in a household environment. i have no physics and no engineering skills whatsoever so this is all new to me, but what i am wanting to do is...

    Creating a Long-Lasting Static Charge to Attract Dust

    hi, i have some questions about static charges and to see if anyone is able to help me with an experiment. i am pretty naive about this stuff, so please excuse my ignorance if i ask you any silly questions in response to suggestions. i want to create some sort of charge on a surface (about...
