Would static electricity be the cause of a ceiling light continuing to blow a fuse?

No. There is an excessive current draw, possibly in the form of a short circuit. Get an electrician to check it and fix it before you set fire to house.

How does industry use electricity?
If I had to say, it would probably be the pumping of water into the building.
Is Electricity the greatest invention?
no that would have to be transportation. we could easily live without electricity. just make a fire and cook your food over that
How do you install a mounting plate for a ceiling light?
The mounting plate for a ceiling light is designed to be mounted to a round or octagonal ceiling box. Very often these can be installed in existing structures without too much trouble. Without the box it is a code violation. Splices must be in enclosures and hanging loose in the ceiling doesn't qualify. If you do not have a box in the ceiling, you might consider installing a box ON the ceiling. It would be only 1 to 1 1/2 inches deep. Your splices would be safely inside. These boxes are typically used in outside installations and come in white or gray and take paint nicely so no one may ever notice. This type of installation is acceptable if the box is properly mounted.
Who else invented electricity except for Nikola Telsa?
Nikola Tesla did not invent electricity. In fact, electricity existed for eons before humans did. It exists today not only as controlled electric current, but as static cling, lightning, and bio-electricity (which powers our nervous systems). To say that anyone invented electricity is the same as saying that someone invented fire, gravity, or light.However, it would be accurate to say that Tesla was a key figure in generating and harnessing electricity in much the same way as Benjamin Franklin is often credited with the discovery that lightning could be harnessed.If this is for a homework assignment, I believe the answer you're looking for is Benjamin Franklin and Micheal Faraday.Possibly:-Sir Humphrey DavyHans Christian Oerstedand Charles Augustine de Coulomb, whom the SI unit of charge is named after.
What kind of energy does an electrical drill use?
That would be electricity.
Would it be possible to create chidori with static electricity?
yes, if you had enough static electricity
How do you capture 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.
Do we need static electricity?
Yes, because we would have no electricity if we didn't.
What is static electricity a form of?
Another form of static elecricity would be... lightning.
What materials would be bad for creating static electricity?
Since metals are conducting surfaces, they are terrible for conducting static electricity.
What is a good title for a science project about static electricity?
I would suggest "shocking science" as a title for a project about static electricity.
Static in static electricity describes what property of the charge?
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...
What happens when you rub a comb of a piece of wool?
The copper penny might get cleaner. If it were a rubber penny, then you would get static electricity.
Why are you getting current from your car on touching after coming out?
That would be static electricity.
Is static electricity is a kind of a lightning?
A little but if this was homework the basic answer would NO
Why is paper attracted to negatively charged balloon?
opposite electric charge
What is the difference of static electricity and current 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).
