Want this question answered?
Anti-static wrist bands or anklets help ground a person and divert static electricity. This is useful when a person works in demolition. A spark can ignite plastic explosives, and the anti-static wrist bands greatly reduce the likelihood that static electricity would detonate the materials prematurely.
yes, if you had enough static electricity
Technically, static electricity IS captured electricity. Thus the term "static". If you wanted to capture it, all you would have to do is keep building it up.
Yes, because we would have no electricity if we didn't.
Since metals are conducting surfaces, they are terrible for conducting static electricity.
That would be static electricity.
Current electricity requires an energy source, it would not flow unless there is a complete circuit to flow through continuously and it only flow through conductors where as static electricity does not require all of these. Static electricity can have extra protons or electrons and there foe can be either positively or negatively charged. Current electricity is simply the flow of electrons(negative).
The "static" in static electricity describes that the charge is unmoving, or staying in one place. A movement of electrons is not occuring, however there is an electrical charge. The opposite would be current electricity that flows, and that you would find in electric cords, etc...
Alternating current and static electricity. Pulses of current made via piezo electricity would be called d.c.
two types: static electricity and current electricity This would be possible but I think that in the future there will be other types of electricity out there mabye in 2020 who knows?

To whom it may concern, Did you mean to ask what is static electricity?? If so the term static, which means stays the same, means the electricity in a circuit is static; it does not change direction and electrons only have 1 path to travel. An example of a static circuit would be a DC ( Direct Current) circuit, whereas an AC circuit; alternating current, alternates between 120v to 0v, then 0 to negative 120, back to 0v, then to positive 120v, however, this happens at so fast you would never catch a reading on a multi meter.

Another form of static elecricity would be... lightning.
