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 charge develops on rubbing plastic straw with polythene?
Static electrical charge.
What force is related to or caused by electric charges that do not move?
An electrostatic charge, that is one not caused by a flow of current
Is electrostatic charge and static electricity the same thing?
Yes. They stand for the same
What does static electricity and current electricity have in common?
They both cause by electrical charge
What is a charge in a battery not an example of static electricity?
Because it has no charge
What is the example of electricity?
The flow of electrons or the existence of a static charge.
Is lighting a static charge or is it produce by static charge?
Lighting is caused by static charge, not that lighting is a static charge . It happen when unlike charge come in attraction.
What is the movement of static charge from one place to another?
Static Discharge:Perhaps you see a spark jump between your hand and the doorknob. The spark is an example of an electric discharge. An electric discharge is the movement of static charge from one place to another. The spark you saw was the result of a static charge moving between your hand and the doorknob.
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.
Why static electricity don't have electric charge?
Static electricity DOES have an electric charge.
What force causes static charge?
Friction is the force that causes static charge
What charge does not move?
Static Charge.
What is the difference between static charge and static electricity?
in my own explanation static charge is a reaction between the (+)protons and (-)electrons an the effect of this reaction is called static electricity.
The buildup of charges on an object is called?
It is static electricity or in other words just static, or just a static charge.
Why is static electricity considered to be a charge and not a current?
As the word static means motionless or stationary, the static electricity refers to electrons that are stationary. Hence, static electricity is a charge and not a current.
What causes charging?
There is a difference between a charge and a static charge. A static charge occurs when positive and negative electrons separate themselves to form a conduct charge.
