yes in many ways without control of electricity nothing electrical would work properly.

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")
What are the two types of electricity describe each?
There are two types of Electricity, Static Electricity and Current Electricity. Static Electricity is made by rubbing together two or more objects and making friction while Current electricity is the flow of electric charge across an electrical field.not sure of answer but hopefully its correct
The controlled process by which hydrocarbons are broken down or rearranged into smaller more useful molecules is called?
Cracking
What is the relationship between electricity and magnetism with an electromagnet?
Oesterd discovered that when an electric current flows through a conductor a magnetic field develops around the conductor. So when you switch on the electromagnet a current passes through a solenoid generating a magnetic field which can be controlled by either forming more or less loops or increasing/decreasing the amount of current passing through the solenoid.
What is the difference of static electricity and current electricity?
Current electricity requires an energy source, it would not flow unless there is a complete circuit to flow through continuously and it only flow through conductors where as static electricity does not require all of these. Static electricity can have extra protons or electrons and there foe can be either positively or negatively charged. Current electricity is simply the flow of electrons(negative).
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")
Which is more useful static or current electricity?
It is current. Because current electricity has moving charges while static electricity has stationary charges.
Where is multiphase electricity used?
Multiphase is useful in industrial applications such as locomotives, where more electric current can be applied than single phase.
What are two forms of electricity?
The two types are "static electricity" and "current electricity."Read more: What_are_the_two_types_of_electricity
What is the difference between the current and electricity?
Current specifically refers to the movement electrons through an electric conductor. Electricity is a more general term.
How dangerous is electricity?
About as dangerous as a kitchen knife. Both are very useful, but in inexperienced hands, or used carelessly, can kill you or someone else. Bottom line - If you are going to work around electricity, get the proper training! If you are using electric appliances, read, understand, and follow the instructions.
What is the relationship between heat and current?
Heat is caused by resistance against electricity, or flow of current which is part of electricity. Electricity was made by physical power converted into electricity. The heat is caused by resisting the flow of electrical current.
Who is responsible for electricity as you know today?
Thomas Jefferson figured out how to harness electricity and make it useful but his system was "direct" current. Meanwhile a fellow named Westinghouse was developng a safer and more reliable method of delivering electricity. He gave us "alternating" current which is what we use in almost all applications like our homes, traffic lights and so on. Direct current is still used in cars but because it has limited adaptability on a larger scale it is not used very often.
Why spherical conductor does not hold more electricity?
If it is spherical then where/how does the current flow?
Which is more useful ac or dc current?
both. it depends on the application.
What is one way that alternative current is more useful than direct current?
alternating current is easier to transfer long distances
