Paint spraying cars: the paint particles are given a negative charge, and the car frame is given a positive charge, so the paint sprays out, and sicks to the car, and is attracted to all the hard- to reach areas
Electrosatic precipitator; in coal fired power station theses are used to stop the dust particles reaching the atmosphere. Particles of ass pass through a charged grid, and becone charged. They then stick to plated either side of this grid, where they can be disposed of safely
Photocopier; A charged drum is in the photocopier. Light is then shone through the paper, and whete ther is no print light hits the drum and it looses its charge. This leaves charge where there needs to be ink. Ink is the pulled onto the charged drum, and transfered onto paper
Antistatic floors; to avoid static charges in hospital, the floors are made out of an antistatic material, so no charge can build up.

How do you use static electricity?
everything electronic is static electricity
What are some ways you use static electricity?
Photo Copy machines use static electricity to get the ink in the places where it needs to be copied. There's an artist that uses static electricity to fly the different paint onto the paper. They also use static electricity to paint cars. (True enough, I got the artist thing from Bill Nye The Science Guy)
Is static electricity not really static?
Static electricity is static. It's just shortened.
Which is a characteristic of static electricity?
Which is a characteristic of static electricity
How do you overcome the dangers of static electricity?
The best way to overcome the dangers of static electricity is to use proper grounding so that the accumulated charges are discharged.
Describe one technological use of static electricity?
One technological use of static electricity is in car painting, where the spray nozzle is connected to a negative electrode. The car part is charged with opposite charge, where the paint droplets are attracted to the car body part.

What is the difference between spark and static?
Static is the name of an electricity, a spark is like the outcome of friction. Like, you can use static electricity to make a spark.

Why do you use the word static to describe static electricity?
Static means it doesn't move. This is essentially what static electricity is, a charge tht has no current. It is made by the transfer of electrons, as a pose to a cell or battery.
How do you use statics?

Does PVC pipe generate static electricity?
A PVC pipe alone does not generate static electricity. Electrons need to be transfered for static electricity to be generated. Rubbing felt on the pipe or spraying it with sand are two common ways that people can use PVC pipe to generate static electricity.
Does friction use static?
the charges does not move in a body the frictional electricity is called static eletricity
What is the relationship between atoms and static electricity?
static electricity can be called high voltage static electricity can be called high voltage static electricity can bend water
