What else can I help you with?
Does silk attract static electricity?
Yes, silk can generate static electricity due to its smooth texture and low conductivity, which can cause it to attract and hold onto electric charge. Rubbing silk against certain materials can create friction and lead to the buildup of static electricity.
What do you need to create static electricity?
Friction
What is the type of electricity you create by rubbing a balloon on your head?
Static electricity.
When did thales of milletus discover electricity?
Thales discovered static electricity by rubbing a peice of amber against a silk cloth.
Can CPVC pipe create static electricity when heated?
Yes, CPVC pipe can create static electricity when heated. The friction generated during the heating process can lead to a buildup of static electricity on the surface of the pipe. It is important to take precautions and properly ground the pipe to avoid any potential hazards associated with static electricity.
What type of charge can create static electricity?
Both positive and negative charges can create static electricity. When certain materials are rubbed together, electrons can be transferred from one material to another, resulting in an imbalance of positive and negative charges and the buildup of static electricity.
What is the Effect of rubbing glass with silk rubber?
Rubbing glass with silk or rubber can create static electricity due to the friction between the materials. This static charge can cause the glass to attract small objects or produce a mild electric shock when touched.
What are the devices that are static electricity?
If you mean the name of the machine used to create static electricity - it's called a 'van de graaff' generator.
If rubber is a good insulator why do balloons attract static electricity?
Insulators can easily have static electricity. In case of conductors we have to follow some delicate procedure to store charges on it. Usually that is known to be electrostatic induction. But in case of insulators just rubbing would do to produce static electricity. Example: when a glass rod is rubbed against a silk cloth, then glass lose electrons to the silk and so glass becomes positively charged and silk negatively charged. So balloons being a bad conductor is good example to have static electricity. If it is good conductor then charges would flow through them easily and so not possible to produce static electricity just by rubbing.
Would it be possible to create chidori with static electricity?
No, the Chidori is a fictional technique from the Naruto series that involves gathering chakra in one's hand to create an electrical charge. Static electricity would not be sufficient to replicate this technique as it is purely a concept from the show.
Do people who drag their feet produce electricity?
Most often, they create annoyance. Rubbing dissimilar materials together (say, silk and glass) often creates a static charge. Dragging your shoes on a carpet can create such a charge. (And wear out the carpet.)
Is a SILK a good conductors?
No, (wikipedia)and Benjamin Franklin actually hold a piece of silk in hand in the famous experiment of lightning
