| + | * Too hard to change now. Like telling Americans to drive on the left, there would be chaos. | ||
| + | * It doesn' | ||
| + | * There are two simultaneous and opposite circuits: the electrons flow from negative to positive, the positive charge flows from positive to negative. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Ben Franklin is often blamed for the mixup, because he described positive and negative charges 50 years before the first battery, and 150 years before the electron was discovered. | ||

| + | He decided that the glass rod being rubbed with silk would be a positive charge while the rubber and fur would be a negative charge. So, with that convention, by removing electrons, the glass rod became positively charged and by adding electrons, the rubber rod became negatively charged. | ||

| + | * 1752 Ben Franklin flew his kite in a storm and captured electricity from lighting. | ||
| + | * Rubbing a glass rod with silk produces a positive charge. | ||

| + | * 1861 Maxwell presents his equations (right-hand thumb rule?) | ||
