Actually in theory, how will the deflection vary according to 1. Voltage across the plates 2. Starting Height of the water stream Because I got linear relationship between them and I doubt it's really true...

thanks for all the help I just got a few questions.. 1. Why a stream of water has a more observable deflection than a single water droplet? Is there anything to do with more water molecules in a stream of water, hence more attraction? 2. How the deflection will vary if I change the...

I use tap water from the science lab. Voltage is from 0 to 5000V. Deflection is measured by taking photos with a camera and observed on the computer.

Hi, I am currently investigating stream of water under high voltage. My setup is using two aluminium plates connected to high voltage power supply with a burette running water between two plates. I found out that the water stream only deflects to one polarity ( i.e. positive/ negative ONLY )...
