Liquids

Liquid is contained in a burette and allowed to flow down into a beaker in a thin stream. When the bakelite rod is rubbed with fur and brought near the stream of liquid the stream is attracted toward the rod and deflected from its straight downward path. The same thing happens when a glass rod rubbed with silk is brought near the stream of liquid; the stream of liquid is deflected toward the rod.
