How does humidity level affect the amount of static electricity that can be build up on a balloon?

It affects by not allowing as much static electricity to stay on the balloon's surface. When the air has more moisture in it (humidity), the static electricity picked up is more likely to disperse in the air than stay on the surface area. As it's the opposite when the air is dry....when the balloon picks up the static electricity, it is more likely to hold on to it than in dryer air than disperse it like it does in warmer air.

Does the amount of rubs on a balloon effect the static electricity?
Yes, Yes it does. Have fun shocking people :)
What is the hypothesis for static electricity?
My hypothesis for my experiment was that rubbing the balloon on the wool sweater will make the balloon stay on the desk the longest. I believe this because the sweater was furry. I also predicted that there would not be a different in the amount of time the balloon stayed on the desk at different times of day.
What is the difference between heat and humidity?
heat refers to the amount of high temperature in air.... and humidity refers to the amount of water in air.....
How do you measure the humidity?
To measure humidity you need a hygrometer. It is a tool that measures the amount of moisture in the air.
Does the length of the persons hair affect the power of static electricity?

How does the diameter of wire coil affect the amount of electricity?
The diameter of the coil affects the amount of electricity as longer the coil longer the electricity.
Does the amount of rubs on a balloon effect the static electricity?
Yes, Yes it does. Have fun shocking people :)
How does condensation affect weather?
A change in the amount of water vapor in the air affects humidity and that's how condensation affect the weather.
How does humidity effect power lines?
Electricity has the ability to arc or jump up to almost 20 feet. When power lines have a high amount of voltage running through them, and the humidity is high, the electricity can arc even more that 20 feet.
What is thin polymer film?
A thin polymer film is a humidity sensor. So like the amount of water vapor the thin polymer film contains changes in the film's ability to conduct electricity and the film's ability to conduct electricity is affected by the relative humidity (the ratio of the amount of water vapor in the air to the amount of water vapor needed to reach saturation at a given temperature) of the surrounding air. Thus, by measuring the polymer film's ability to store electricity, relative humidity can be determined.
Influence humidity levels in a particular area?
To influence humidity levels in a particular area, you can use a dehumidifier to reduce humidity or a humidifier to increase humidity. Additionally, ensuring proper ventilation, fixing any leaks or sources of excess moisture, and using air conditioning can also help control humidity levels in a specific area.
Does the humidity of the air affect how quickly water will evaporate?
Yes. Humidity represents the amount of water vapor that exists for a given temperature, pressure, and volume. As humidity increases, the evaporation rate will decrease.
What will happen if the warm water would affect the amount of carbon dioxide the yeast performs?
if you put a balloon on the top of the container the balloon will get bigger and bigger
Which is the comparison of the amount of moisture in the air to the amount of moisture it can hold?
relative humidity
Is humidity the amount of dust in the air?
no. humidity is the amount of water in the air.
Amount of moisture in air compared to amount needed in saturation?
Relative humidity.
