Here is an experiment you can run on your own. All you need is a plastic comb, a faucet, and a head full of dry hair. Comb your hair for about a minute. Now turn on the faucet, but only so that a very small stream of water is coming out. Next, take the comb, and hold it close to the water coming out of the faucet, but be careful not to let the water actually touch the comb.


You will see the water actually bend towards the comb! This looks pretty awesome.


What is causing the water to do this?
