What is an atmospheric discharge of static electricity called?
An atmospheric discharge of static electricity is commonly known as lightning. Lightning is a sudden electrostatic discharge that occurs during a thunderstorm when there is a buildup of electric charge in the atmosphere.
What is the release of static electricity in the atmosphere?
The release of static electricity in the atmosphere is known as lightning. It occurs when the buildup of static charge in clouds or between clouds and the ground discharges in the form of a visible electrical discharge. Lightning can be accompanied by thunder and can be dangerous due to its high voltage and heat.
How are current and static electricity related?
Current electricity is the flow of electrons through a conductor, while static electricity is the buildup of electric charge on an object. Both are manifestations of the fundamental force of electromagnetism. Static electricity can discharge to become current electricity under certain conditions.
Is static electricity a safe form of electricity?
Static electricity is negatively safe meaning yes and no . if u rub a balloon on your hair that is static elect. it will stay there that is safe. Well it's very rare for static electricity to get particularly large in every day life, so for the most part it is safe. But it also causes lightening, so in some cases, not so safe. ------- Static electricity can damage a computer so in that sense it is unsafe for electronic equipment.
Can static be a harm?
If the static charge has enough potential stored, there may be a risk of harm. Most commen occurances of static electricity being discharged is barley enough to sting the average human, leaving no permanent harm. Severe collections of static electricity, such as found in storm clouds, can discharge enough power to form lightening.
Lightening is caused by?
Lightning is static electricity.
What causes static electricty?
Static electricity is a build up of electrons that are rubbed off by things rubbing against each other. Static electricity is a problem on dry days with low humidity. Even the wind rubbing on cars can build up static electricity, a comb or balloon rubbed against clean hair builds up static electricity and of course lightening is a discharge of static electricity from the clouds to the Earth.
When is static electricity useful?

What cases lighting?
Lightening is caused by the accumulation of static electricity in the molecules of air and water that results from the motion of those molecules in a turbulent thunder cloud.
