Answer:

Franklin proposed an experiment with conductive rods to attract lightning to a leyden jar, an early form of capacitor

Explanation:

The kite was struck by lightning and, when Franklin moved his hand towards the key, a spark jumped across and he felt a shock, proving that lightning was electrical in nature. ... He was also the first scientist to use the terms positive and negative charge, possibly the basis of the myth that he discovered electricity.
