static electricity (kinitic)
Static electricity
you build up a charge from dragging your feet and then when you touch the doorknob you discharge the electricity.
You build up static electricity by walking across the carpet. When you touch metal doorknob, it releases the stored energy.positive and negative charges. when you drag your feet against carpet you are negatively charged and so the door knob is positively charged so there fore causing an electric shock
electrically neutral :)
You get an electric shock if you touch a doorknob after walking on carpet because of built up of extra electrons transferred from the carpet to your feet and then body. The electrons stay built up on you until you touch something that they can discharge on, in this case a doorknob.
The friction of your feet on a carpet generates static electricity. When you then touch the metal doorware its earths through you causing the charge to pass to the door.

We hace electric descharge
Friction:)
Walking across a carpet can cause charge separation, which creates static electricity. You become electrically charged. When you get zapped touching a door knob, the static charge you had built up is discharging.
energy form rubbing your feet on the carpet is acumulated "in" you, and the doorknob acts a ground. Once you touch the doorknob, the energy exits. It makes more sense if you think that you are the positive end of a circuit, and the energy goes through the circuit, and the spak can be thought of as an LED.
your hair is sticking up after rubbing a ballon on your head.rubbing your feet on a carpet then touching a doorknob and getting shocked as a result.
