What is the main force in nature that causes water to flow?
Is it momentum friction electricity or gravity
Is static electricity caused by friction?
It is! To create static electricity you need friction.
Is current electricity caused by friction?
no only static electricity is caused by friction.
What causes a crackling sound when you take of your clothes?
You create friction when you take off your clothes. The crackling sound is the static electricity.
What is application of friction in hospitals?
causes static electricity which may interfere with sensitive patient monitors and other medical equipment
Is Electricity friction?
No.
How is electricity generated in an action potential?
It causes friction while rubbing up against the cell membrane, lighting the cell up like a light bulb and static electricity is made causing electricity to be formed
How can one create static electricity through the use of friction?
You generate static electricity when you move one object against another. This movement causes friction, which releases a negative charge. Then you suddenly release these electrons causing a shock, e.g. touching someone.
How friction can be a nuisance?
Friction can be a nuisance when it causes wear and tear -- on parts in machinery, on items of clothing, furniture, etc. Friction can also be a nuisance when it causes static electricity. The static electricity, depending on the circumstances, can cause anything from a mild shock and clothing cling to an explosion at a gas pump or near gas fumes in a building. It can also cause damage while work is being done on the insides of a computer.
What kind of electricity caused by friction?
Static electricity.
What type of electricity is produced by friction?
It is static electricity.
How do aircrafts or petrol tankers prevent the buildup of excessive static electicity?
Airplanes accumulate static electricity when its in the air (air friction). The friction then strips electrons from the atmosphere and causes them to build up on the airplane.
