Is static electricity friction between two objects?
yes it's the objects rubbing together and producing an static charge. this is the really simple answer.
What type of charge is transferred when friction between two objects occurs?
Static charge (and thermal energy)
Is static a contact or non-contact force?
it is a noncontact force because before two objects touch, the electical charge held in one of the objects will "jump" to the other object, causing a static shock
How does Static electricity differ from electric discharge?
Static electricity is a charge built up on an object, usually from interacting with its surrounding, like shuffling your feet or rubbing fur. Its just a charge that sits there (static!) Electric discharge is when a charge moves between objects , this happens when you touch something and the static charge on you moves to the new object in one lump. One is a measure of charge, the other is the charge's movement. One is static, the other is usually fast (not always)
When you rub two balloons with wool and gets static do they attract?
If you rub two identical balloons with the same thing, then they both have the same sign of charge, and like charges repel.

Describe ways in which objects acquire an electrostatic charge?
one way in which objects acquire static charge is by friction against two objects which charges the atoms creating static charges/electricity. e.g put on some work boots and sit on a chair and rub them against the carpet hard and quickly so they gain static charge. then whilst still rubbind touch something metal like a pole.

Why do clothes in the dryer get static cling?
Static cling is a phenomenon caused by static electricity. When dry materials rub against each other, they can exchange electrons, creating an electrical charge. This charge can build up in the form of static electricity and cause two objects, typically clothing, to stick or hold together.
What is static energy in Australia?
Static energy is when two objects are rubbed together and then cause a friction.
How is static electricity generated?
Static electricity is generated by rubbing two nonmagnetic objects together.
When two objects push away from each other?
static
How does static electricity build up?
say, if you have a glass rod and you want to make static electricity with a cloth. you rub the two objects together which causes FRICTION. in the atom is a nucleus, shells and two subatomic particles called protons and neutrons. protons have a positive charge and neutrons have no charge. then there are electrons in the shells orbiting. when the two objects are rubbed the electrons get transferred to the cloth which makes the cloth negatively charged and the glass rod positive.
Why do charges appear on rubbing two objects together?
because the rubbing creates static, this static is a type of electricity
