Franklin had been waiting for an opportunity like this. He wanted to demonstrate the electrical nature of lightning, and to do so, he needed a thunderstorm.

He had his materials at the ready: a simple kite made with a large silk handkerchief, a hemp string, and a silk string. He also had a house key, a Leyden jar (a device that could store an electrical charge for later use), and a sharp length of wire. His son William assisted him.

Franklin had originally planned to conduct the experiment atop a Philadelphia church spire, according to his contemporary, British scientist Joseph Priestley (who, incidentally, is credited with discovering oxygen), but he changed his plans when he realized he could achieve the same goal by using a kite.

Imagine you are holding an apple. a. Does this apple have energy? How do you know? b. How could you increase the potential energ
Len [333]
A).  The apple has thermal energy, because its temperature is higher
than absolute zero.
It also has chemical energy, because if I eat it, I get a burst of energy
and I become ambitious for a while.
It also has gravitational potential energy, because if I drop it on my foot,
it could bruise one of my piggies.

b).  I could increase its potential energy by lifting it higher, like over my head.

c).  As long as I'm just holding the apple, it doesn't have any kinetic energy. 
I could give it some kinetic energy by throwing it.
Or I could just drop it, and let gravity give it kinetic energy.
