Fluid theory of electricity
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The fluid theory of electricity is a now defunct theory that postulated an electrical fluid which was responsible for many electrical phenomenon. Although, he was not the first proponent, Benjamin Franklin worked to develop the theory. The Leyden jar was seen as a confirming case for this theory since it appeared to be a jar capable of holding the electric fluid.
