What are 3 types of static electricity?
Lightning is a Natural phenomenon which shows Static electricity. Xerox machine works on the principles of static electricity , Electrostatic precipitators control solid pollution from a smoke works on this electrostatic principles , Some spray coatings and powder coatings are also working on the same principles
Is electrostatic force a contact or non-contact force?
Static electricity is a non contact force because : Whether an object is charged by conduction or induction or even by friction they acquire a charge and the objects acquire opposite charge in induction and friction but same charge in conduction. So when the charged body is brought near an uncharged body if they have opposite charge they will be attracted towards the charged body due to the movement of ionic particles.
How is static electricity the same as current electricity?
It isn't the same. Static electricity is created by friction between two objects, and current electricity is a flow of continuos movement of electrons. Hope this helps!
Is current electricity the same as static electricity?
NO static is a positive charge and grid(current/power) is a negative charge because of the electrons and static stays in 1 place where as current always whants to move
What is the force of exists between particles of the same charge?
Two particles of the same charge will experience an electrostatic repulsive force. Specifically, the force is given by Coulomb's Law.
Is electrostatic charge and static electricity the same thing?
Yes. They stand for the same

What is the meaning. static electricity?
Static electricity" is a group of electrical events which humans have grouped together. It's a "phenomena class" rather than a substance or energy. Whenever high voltage is involved, we will expect to see electrostatic attraction and repulsion as well as sparking. The attraction and repulsion are electrostatic phenomena, so they are the static electricity. Is this confusing? Analogy: in the same way that rocks and floods and volcanos are "geology," lightning bolts, fur-rubbed plastic, and attracted lint are "static electricity." So if we break open a rock, we won't find any geology inside, since the rocks ARE geology. In the same way, lightning bolts don't have any static electricity inside. Scuffing your shoes on the rug IS the static electricity. There are no divisions in nature between different kinds of events, so in the same way that humans have created the idea called "geology," humans created "static electricity."

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.
Why is current electricity more useful than static electricity?
because static electricity cannot be controlled or manipulated like current electricity (think of the saying "lightning doesnt strike on the same place twice")
Does electrostatic force obey newton third law of motion?
Yes, electrostatic force obeys Newton's third law; equal and opposite. Example 1: the electrostatic force on a single Na+ due to a single Cl- in a crystal of NaCl is the same magnitude but opposite in direction. Example 2: the electrostatic force on a single Na+ due to a single SO4^2- in a solution of Na2SO4 is the same magnitude as the force on the SO4^2- but in the opposite direction.
Is current electricity the same as static electricity?
NO static is a positive charge and grid(current/power) is a negative charge because of the electrons and static stays in 1 place where as current always whants to move
What can static electricity push?
anything having the same polarity of charge.
What is the force of exists between particles of the same charge?
Two particles of the same charge will experience an electrostatic repulsive force. Specifically, the force is given by Coulomb's Law.
