Leyden Jar Experiment, 18th Century

A Leyden jar is a device that stores static electricity between two electrodes on the inside and outside of a glass jar. A Leyden jar typically consists of a glass jar with metal foil cemented to the inside and the outside surfaces, and a metal terminal projecting vertically through the jar lid to make contact with the inner foil. It was the original form of a capacitor (originally known as a condenser). It was invented independently by German cleric Ewald Georg von Kleist and by Dutch scientist Pieter van Musschenbroek of Leiden (Leyden) in 1745-46. The invention was named for the city. The Leyden jar was used to conduct many early experiments in electricity, and its discovery was of fundamental importance in the study of electrostatics. The Leyden jar was the first means of storing an electric charge which then could be discharged at the experimenter's will. Leyden jars are still used in education to demonstrate the principles of electrostatics. This image has been color enhanced.

Título:
Leyden Jar Experiment, 18th Century
Descripción:
Traducción automática: Una botella de Leyden es un dispositivo que almacena electricidad estática entre dos electrodos en el interior y el exterior de un frasco de vidrio. Una botella de Leyden consiste típicamente en un frasco de vidrio con una lámina metálica pegada a las superficies interna y externa, y un terminal metálico que sobresale verticalmente a través de la tapa del frasco para hacer contacto con la lámina interna. Era la forma original de un capacitor (originalmente conocido como condensador). Fue inventado independientemente por el clérigo alemán Ewald Georg von Kleist y por el científico holandés Pieter van Musschenbroek de Leiden (Leyden) en 1745-46. El invento recibió el nombre de la ciudad. La botella de Leyden se utilizó para realizar muchos de los primeros experimentos en electricidad, y su descubrimiento fue de importancia fundamental en el estudio de la electrostática. La botella de Leyden fue el primer medio de almacenar una carga eléctrica que luego podía descargarse a voluntad del experimentador. Las botellas de Leyden todavía se utilizan en educación para demostrar los principios de la electrostática. Esta imagen ha sido mejorada en color
