How do you get rid of electricity in your hair?

What runs on electricity?

Some cars, mircowaves, computers, toasters, hair dryers, cell phones. People wonder how cell phones run on electricity it's because the battery inside the cell phone is powered by electricity. Without electricity the battery would die out after a while.


What is static electricity and how does it work?

This is just a charge that accumulates on something that is isolated from ground. Under some circumstances a charge may build up on your body and then you touch something that is grounded and you get a shock. This is the static electricity flowing to ground.


What inventions hastened the development of electricity?

Electricity was always there in nature. It became known to man when the greeks found out that if you rub amber with silk it could attract tiny pieces of hair or paper. Later Benjamin Franklin discovered that lightning is actually electricity and that it flows through metal easily. Scientists used electrolytes to produce electricities which led to the discovery of cells and batteries. This was used to produce DC. Then burning of fossil fuels led to enormous production of electricity(DC). Edison discovered the many things known to man and revolutionized DC electricity. In that century Oersted discovered the connection of electricity and magnetism and Faraday postulated his laws about electromagnetism. It was Tesla who invented the dynamo that produced AC which challenged Edison's line of work. (To be frank with you i think that Tesla should be considered as the father of inventions and not Edison.) Tesla also devised a machine called Tesla Coil which had the potential to conduct electricity to the lights and other electronics via the air. He used the concept of radio waves(which are also electromagnetic waves). He even used this technology to produce a Mass Scale Tesla Coil which produce so violent electricity that it destroyed a huge plot of land. This came to be known as the Death Ray. But it is a marvelous invention.


What is nanatechnology?

Nanotechnology is the science of things on the nano-scale, or 10^-9 meters. To imagine this scale, think of the relationship between you and your hair, its pretty tiny. Then imagine if your hair grew a proportional sized hair. Now imagine if that hair grew a hair. This is how small nano-scale engineering goes.
