How is static electricity different from electricity from a battery?

Static electricity has no charge. This means that it doesn't move. The electrons in the wire that are pumped around the circuit by the battery do move and thus have charge. You can only use power that has a charge or "moves".

Why do you use the word static to describe static electricity?
Static means it doesn't move. This is essentially what static electricity is, a charge tht has no current. It is made by the transfer of electrons, as a pose to a cell or battery.
Are there different types of electricity?
Static and Current
Is battery and electricity same?
No Electricity is electricity and it is made in different ways of which a battery is one
How can you use static charges and static elec to generate EMF or elec current?
Static charge and static electricity are 2 different terms for the same thing. Static electricity is voltage without current, usually created by friction. Voltage and EMF are 2 different terms for the same thing. When static electricity generates current, it is called a discharge and the static electricity ceases to exist. It has been discharged.
What creates the charge in an electrical current?
It requires a power source such as a battery, generator, or static electricity, (which is a form of a battery).
How are electricity and static electricity different?
none, except:static electricity is electric charge without current flow, usually induced by friction between two different insulating materials.dynamic electricity is electric charge with current flow.when static electricity is discharged it is no longer static, as there is current flow during the discharge.
Why do paper stick on the pen after rubbing on hair?
This is because of static electricity, like that caused when you rub a balloon on your hair and it then sticks to the ceiling, or how a comb rubbed on wool sticks to paper.
Why can static electricity not to be used to run a television?

Static electricity definition?
The electricity generated when there is an imbalance between two different charges.
