What is a device used to detect the presence of a static charge?
An electroscope is a device used to detect the presence of a static charge. It works by using two thin metal leaves that separate when a charge is applied, indicating the presence of static electricity.
What is a huge release of static electrical charge called?
A huge release of static electrical charge is called a discharge, commonly seen as lightning during a storm.
What releases a huge static electrical charge?
ballons
What do you call the movement of an electrical charge from one object to another?
static charge
The buildup of electrical charge on a material is called a?
The buildup of electrical charge on a material is called static electricity. It occurs when there is an imbalance of positive and negative charges on the surface of an object.
Does wet-cell batteries and dry-cell batteries produce static electricity?
Yes. You can use a battery to charge a capacitor, which is an electrical device that stores static charge.
Electrical charge that builds up in an object?
static electricity
Why is it not feasible to power an electrical device with static electricity?
it can blow a circuit
What is the name for a stationary electrical charge which builds up an insulated object?
Static Electricity.
What is device that demonstrates the presence of static electricity is called?
A device that demonstrates the presence of static electricity is called an electroscope. It can detect the presence of static charge by showing the divergence of its two metal leaves.
What property does earth have that enables grounding to drian static charge?
Earth has a property known as "electrical conductivity," which allows it to absorb and dissipate static charge when grounded. When an object with static charge comes into contact with the Earth, the excess electrons flow into the ground, neutralizing the charge and preventing static buildup.
How do you define term frictional electricity?
Frictional electricity is a static electrical charge.
