Materials A metal cup A hard plastic rod and fur A metallic ball suspended by a thread Questions: (as continuation to the previous questions) Suppose that the cup is used to shield the ball while not being allowed to contact your bare hand or other electrical conductor. (Perhaps you wear a rubber glove or hold it with a non-conductor) Will the shielding effect be the same? Before you try it predict what will happen and explain Try the experiment without touching the can with your hand or any other electrical conductor. Was your prediction verified or not?
