Why can static electricity not to be used to run a television?
static electricity is static electricity
Is watching a television current or static electricity?
The operation of the television, as all electronics, involves electric currents. If your TV uses a CRT display as it operates it happens to build a large static electric field on its face, as a side effect of that operation.
Why does an old style TV crackle when it is turned on?
Static Electricity
Why does hairs of hands raise when the hand is brought near TV screens once the TV is switched off?
static electricity It is due to an electromagnetic phenomenon known as "Static Electricity." The television screen is bombarded with electronic rays that produce electrically charged ions in the screen. When your neutrally charged hairs approach the screen, they are attracted by the ions, which are seeking to become neutral. because of static electricity is shocking you but you don't really now it .
How is static electricity formed in a TV?
supposedly energy from 'The Big Bang'
Why hairs raise when you take hand near to television?
The TV is producing static electricity.
Why can't you use static electricity to power appliances?
Static electricity can also cause uncomfortable shocks to a person who becomes "charged up". To experience this shock, drag your feet across a carpet in socks, then touch your finger to a doorknob. Static electricity can be responsible for the ignition of flammable gases, such as the vapors produced by petrol (gasoline) when you are filling your car.
What is the difference between static and current electricty?
Current electricity- is powered by things like power plants, wind mills, solar energy, and burning fossil fuels. Current electricity is used to power things like light bulbs, televisions, and kitchen products. Static Electricity- is powered by electrons moving from one thing to another and there is not enough power to power things we use everyday.
Does a television set create static electricity?
Some materials cause or create more static electricity than others. Since static electricity is the collection of electrically charged particles on the surface of a material, various materials have a tendency of either giving up electrons and becoming positive (+) in charge or attracting electrons and becoming negative (−) in charge. The Triboelectric Series is a list of materials, showing which have a greater tendency to become positive (+) and which have a greater tendency to become negative (−). The list is a handy tool to determine which combinations of materials create the most static electricity
Could current electricity run a television?
yes it can
What is the explanation of static electricity?
a simple explanation is that static electricity is just electricity that is stored in a non-chemical way, similar to that of a capacitor. the electrons that make the charge are at a higher concentration to normal and when a contact is made (like if you touch your television screen) the electrons move (and thus stop being static) to a place where there is a lower concentration of electrons/electric charge.
Why do you need to turn the tv on on poptropica?
because it will make static electricity and you can get to the fish food so they are happy and wont hurt you so you can get the key
