Technically, it doesn't. Static electricity is not something some things have or don't have. It is built up by two objects coming in contact with eachother. Some objects are more negative or positive than others, and the more positive items tend to lose their electrons more easily than the negatives, who tend to gain electrons. The gain/loss of electons happens on contact. Rubbing creates more contact, and therefore more gain/loss. The shock comes when a positively charged object touches a grounded item, such as a metal post or a person. Electrons jump to the object through the grounded item from the ground. If said object is a human, (s)he will feel a jolt of electricity, which we call static. Note: I call positive objects positive because they become positive on contact. I use the same reasoning with negative objects.
No,because plastic is a not a conductor of electricity.
By rubbing it with wool
Because the bond between metal atoms is stronger than plastic.
A metric ruler is a piece of wood or plastic, marked at millimetre intervals.The US ruler is called the president.
no it can not .it is because a magnetic meterial can made in to magnet
A transparent ruler may be a polycarbonate. An opaque-type ruler may be a polystyrene copolymer such as high-impact polystyrene (HIPS). Recycled polystyrene can be turned into rulers, among other things.
Buttons, plastic kid cups, bowls, plastic ware, computer, ink, pens, car (mostly), headphones, ipod, plastic lunch bags, lunch box, backpack, books, game board's, wii, DS, CD's, shoes, hairbands, toys, ruler,jewellery box,pencil sharpener,phones,wires and dispoasable camera.
it generates magnetic field and thus get charged
when you rub the plastic ruler on e.g. a yellow duster it takes the electrons (which is the negative charge) from the yellow duster and the plastic ruler becomes negatively charged. The paper has both protons and electrons the protons are positively charged. and very much like a magnet the negative is attracted to the positive hence the paper sticks to the ruler Hastings Tarrant
Plastic is generally used as an insulator. A plastic ruler would not be a conductor of electricity.
It's a ruler made of acrylic. Essentially, it's a clear plastic ruler.
when rubbed with hair, ruler acquires some charge due to static electricity...becomes charged body and attracts tiny pieces of paper towards it.
Is plastic alive? No. Therefore it is abiotic.
a bit of plastic
Because the bond between metal atoms is stronger than plastic.

Zeus didn't become its ruler, that would be Hades
