1st blog of Da Kine Second Semester.

When I was in Las Vegas this past summer I learned about static electricity. Everywhere in Las Vegas including the Hotel rooms is very dry. Since it is so dry static electricity builds up easily on many surfaces including our bodies. Jumping on the bedding with my socks on produced a static electricity charge through friction. After we finished jumping all over the bed I walked over to the sink and experienced static shock first hand. (pun intended) My whole hand felt a jolt as electrons flowed from my dry skin into the metal sink. Although it was surprising it was a total rush!! Static electricity is fun!!!
