How does a static discharge differ from an electric current?
It doesn't differ at all, an electric current is electricity that is moving in a current and when static electricity is discharged from an object it creates a current from one object to another
What is the difference between limiting current and diffusion current?
The limiting current is defined as the limiting value of a current that is approached as the rate of charge-transfer to an electrode is increased. The diffusion current is defined as a current in a semiconductor caused by the diffusion of holes and/or electrons.
What is an object in an electric circuit that resists the flow of electrons?
A special kind of resistor can oppose the flow of an electrical current.
Does lead slow down electric currents?
Not to any perceivable level. Lead will conduct an electrical current, as will any metallic object.
How is discharging in a positive object different in a negative object?
The direction of the flow of electric current. In a positive object, electrons flow to it because it has an abscence of negative charge (aka electrons). In a negative object, it has an abundance of negative charge (electrons) so electrons flow away from it.
What is the ability of an object to transfer electric current?
The ability of an object to transfer electric current is conductivity.
What is the ability of an object to transfer heat?
thermal conductivity

The loss of static electricity as electric charges transfer from one object to another?

Name of an object that lets pass an electric current?
Circuit... i think
What effect has the number of armature paths upon the current carrying ability of a generator?
What effect has the number of armature paths upon the current-carrying ability of a generator?
What is the loss of static electricity as electric charges transfer from one object to another?
Static electricity
What is the movement of electricity?
The movement of electric charge is known as an electric current, the intensity of which is usually measured in amperes
The ability of an object to resist current is called?
Resistance. And the object exhibiting this property is called a resistor.
What is the difference between limiting current and diffusion current?
The limiting current is defined as the limiting value of a current that is approached as the rate of charge-transfer to an electrode is increased. The diffusion current is defined as a current in a semiconductor caused by the diffusion of holes and/or electrons.
