| 5C10.10 | sample capacitors | PIRA 500 | |
| 5C10.10 | sample capacitors | 5C10.10 | Show many capacitor examples. |
| 5C10.10 | capacitors | E-4a | Several types of capacitors are shown. |
| 5C10.15 | simple spherical capacitor | E-62 | Charge
a 8" sphere several times with an electrophorus, then repeat with a insulated
conductor near, then repeat with a grounded conductor near. The number of
sparks required to reach a potential varies. |
| 5C10.20 | parallel plate capacitor | PIRA 200 | Change the spacing of a charged parallel plate capacitor while it is attached to an electroscope. |
| 5C10.20 | parallel plate capacitor | 5C10.20 | Change the spacing of a charged parallel plate capacitor while attached to an electroscope. |
| 5C10.20 | field and voltage | Ed-1 | Vary the spacing of a charged parallel plate capacitor while the voltage is measured with an electroscope. |
| 5C10.20 | parallel plate capacitor | E-69 | Charge
a simple capacitor of two parallel movable plates and the divergence of electroscope
leaves varies as the plates are moved. |
| 5C10.20 | capacitance and voltage | E-4d | Separate charged plates while an electroscope is attached. |
| 5C10.20 | parallel plate capacitor | Disc 18-19 | Charge parallel plates with a rod, watch the electroscope as the distance between the plates is changed. Animation sequence. |
| 5C10.21 | battery and separable capacitor | PIRA 1000 | |
| 5C10.21 | battery and separable capacitor | Disc 18-22 | Charge a parallel plate capacitor to 300 V, then move the plates apart until an electroscope deflects. |
| 5C10.30 | dependence of capacitance on area | PIRA 1000 | |
| 5C10.30 | dependence of capacitance on area | E-73 | As
a chain is lifted out of a hollow charged conductor on an electroscope, the
deflection decreases. When let back down, it increases again. |

| 5C10.35 | rotary capacitor | Disc 18-21 | Charge a large rotary capacitor with a rod and watch an electroscope as the overlap is changed. |
| 5C10.40 | C=i/(dv/dt) demonstrator | AJP 28(7),675 | Vary
a potentiometer so that a constant current is maintained while charging a
capacitor from a 90 volt battery. Measure the time. |
