Static electricity uses positive and negative charges contained within a non-conductive material to attract or repel another object with off balanced charges.

Magnetism uses the polarity of atoms to attract or repel another object that can potentially be a magnet.

Never. Static charge has only electric field around it. Magnetic field would not interact with electric field, but interacts only with a magnetic field that too subjected to some conditions of direction etc

No. Static electricity will not produce a magnetic field. A magnetic field is basically caused by moving charges, i.e., by a current, by electrons orbiting their atom, etc.

Was there electricity in 1787?

Not as we know it, but Benjamine Franklin, in a famous 1752 experiment, he flew a kite with a key attached to prove that electricity exists in the atmosphere. Electricity existed chemically (batteries), and by static electricity. At that time they did not know how to produce electricity with magnets (generator).

What is constrast static electricity?

Electrical current is the flow of electrons. "Static electricity" is more accurately called "static charge". It refers to the build up of a surplus of free electrons on a body (negative charge) , or the withdrawl of free electrons (positive charge). As the word "static" means, these charges are not moving, but are held stationary on the body. The measure of charge is the coulomb, which is 1.24 x 1018 electrons. If a charge is moving along a conductor, always from negative to positive, this flow of electrons is referred to as "current". The basic unit of current, is the amp. 1 amp is charge flowing at the rate of 1 coulomb per second.
