basically, static electricity is caused by either having to many electrons or not enough. This is bad for electrons, and they want to find atoms to join up with, so they will "jump" from one object to another to find these atoms. This causes the spark, and therfore the shock
One example of static electricity is when you drag your feet across the floor and then shock someone. The shock is the static electricity.
Because static electricity is in the car frame and if you touch the car you will get a static shock.
When you walk across a carpet, friction between your shoes and the carpet causes a build-up of static electricity on your body. When you touch a metal object or another person, this excess charge discharges, creating a mild electric shock.
When you get zapped by static electricity, it means that there is an imbalance of electric charge on your body or on the object you touch. This causes a sudden flow of electrons to even out the charge, resulting in a small but quick electric shock or spark.
The shock is caused by the buildup of static electricity on the person's body as they walk across the carpet. When they touch the metal doorknob, the excess electrons on their body transfer to the knob, creating a sudden discharge of static electricity that is felt as a shock.
No, you cannot die from static shock. It is usually harmless and only causes a mild discomfort.
There is no friction IN static electricity. However static electricity can be caused BY friction.
People feel shock when they touch some objects due to the buildup of static electricity on the surface of those objects. When a person touches these objects, the excess electrons move from the object to the person, resulting in a sudden discharge of static electricity that is felt as a shock.
When you touch a trampoline, you may feel a shock because of the buildup of static electricity on the surface of the trampoline. This static electricity can transfer to your body when you make contact with the trampoline, resulting in a small shock sensation.
walk across a carpet and drag your feet in your socks and touch metal and you will produce static electricity and get a shock.

Electricity is the force of what causes static cling in a dryer.
