Probably neutral.
What else can I help you with?
What state does an object return to when it discharges static electricity?
When an object discharges static electricity, it returns to a neutral state. This means it has neither a positive nor negative charge and is once again at equilibrium with its surroundings.
Static discharges occur when?
Static discharges occur when there is a buildup of electric charge on an object due to friction with another object, leading to the sudden flow of electricity between the charged object and a conductive material. This can result in a spark or a sudden shock, commonly experienced when touching a metal object after walking on a carpeted floor.
What is the type of electricity that electrons build up on an object?
static electricity
Accumulation of electric charges on a object?
The build up of a charge on an object can be referred to as a static build up charge.
Is an object with static electricity neutral?
yes
What is an example of harmless static electricity?
An example of harmless static electricity is when you touch a metal doorknob and feel a small shock. This is caused by the buildup of static electricity on your body from walking on carpet, and it discharges when you touch a conductor like the doorknob.
What is the movement of static electricity into an object called?
The movement of static electricity into an object is called "electrification" or "charging." This occurs when the excess charge is transferred from one object to another due to the presence of an electric field.
What causes static electricity to discharge?
There will be a discharge if:* There is a voltage difference (this can be compared to a pressure difference, in gases), and * There is a way for the surplus charge to move from one side to the other.
How does lightning realate to electricity?
Well i don't know about electricity but i know about static electricity. Lightning is like static electricity, except on a much bigger scale. Both lightning and static electricity happen because of the attraction between the opposite charges. When static electricity moves, it is a current. When static electricity in clouds discharges to earth there is a huge, very short current pulse (surge).
What is the of static electricity as charges move off an object?
Static
What causes you to be shock when you walk across a carpet?
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.
What is the loss of static electricity as electric charges transfer from one object to another?
Static electricity
