Yes. As a matter of fact, a common electronic component called a capacitor works because of this very principle.

Why static electricity don't have electric charge?
Static electricity DOES have an electric charge.
How are electricity and static electricity different?
none, except:static electricity is electric charge without current flow, usually induced by friction between two different insulating materials.dynamic electricity is electric charge with current flow.when static electricity is discharged it is no longer static, as there is current flow during the discharge.
How is electricity different from other electricity?
Static electricity is electric charge just sitting there. Electric Current is electric charge in motion. And the original terms for electricity is Lightning, Thunderbolt.
What is the build-up of electric charge on an object?
Static charge is the buildup of electric charges on an object. This is a Biology question.
Does charge get redistributed over the surface of conductor why?
You need to define your querstion a little more. Are we talking about an electric current, or a static charge?
Static in static electricity describes what property of the charge?
The "static" in static electricity describes that the charge is unmoving, or staying in one place. A movement of electrons is not occuring, however there is an electrical charge. The opposite would be current electricity that flows, and that you would find in electric cords, etc...
What is an excess of an electric charge on an object?
Static Charge
What force is related to or caused by electric charges that do not move?
An electrostatic charge, that is one not caused by a flow of current
What is a charge in motion?
A charge in motion is usually called an electric current, but could also be called dynamic electricity (analogous to a charge at rest being called static electricity).
Why is static electricity considered to be a charge and not a current?
As the word static means motionless or stationary, the static electricity refers to electrons that are stationary. Hence, static electricity is a charge and not a current.
Do you use static electricity in your homes or current electricity?
electric current (alternating)
Is static electricity an electric charge?
yes
