say, if you have a glass rod and you want to make static electricity with a cloth. you rub the two objects together which causes FRICTION. in the atom is a nucleus, shells and two subatomic particles called protons and neutrons. protons have a positive charge and neutrons have no charge. then there are electrons in the shells orbiting. when the two objects are rubbed the electrons get transferred to the cloth which makes the cloth negatively charged and the glass rod positive.
What else can I help you with?
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.
What does electrica?
Static electricity is the accumulation or build up of electricity charges on the surface of a material, usually an insulator or non-conductor of electricity.
Why does your jersey make a crackling sound when pulling it over your head?
The crackling sound is caused by static electricity, which is produced by the friction of your jersey.
Why can static electricity not to be used to run a television?
static electricity is static electricity
Why is static electricity worse in the winter than the summer?
Frictional electricity is observed more in winter than summer because of the static electricity which happens more in winter than in summer. Static electricity usually results when to materials that are dissimilar are rubbed together.
When does static electricity build up?
You could build up static electricity when you rub a balloon on your hair.
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.
What is the type of electricity that electrons build up on an object?
static electricity
What is the build up of electrical charges?
Static
What electricity is a build up of a charge on an object?
Static electricity.
What is the build up of electricity called?
Static
What is a good clue to describe static electricity?
build up of static charge
What is the term used to describe the build up of electrical charges on an object due to friction?
The term used to describe the build up of electric charge on a non-conductive material due to friction is static electricity.
Can static electricity build up on an earthed conductor?
No, static electricity cannot build up on a conductor that is properly grounded (earthed). Grounding provides a path for the excess charge to flow into the earth, preventing the accumulation of static electricity on the conductor.
The build up of electrical charges is called?
Static Electricity
What causes static electricty?
Static electricity is a build up of electrons that are rubbed off by things rubbing against each other. Static electricity is a problem on dry days with low humidity. Even the wind rubbing on cars can build up static electricity, a comb or balloon rubbed against clean hair builds up static electricity and of course lightening is a discharge of static electricity from the clouds to the Earth.
Is lighting static electricity?
Yes, it is static electricity caused by the charge build up from the movement of air over the earth.
