How does a static discharge differ from an electric current

It doesn't differ at all, an electric current is electricity that is moving in a current and when static electricity is discharged from an object it creates a current from one object to another

How is the wiring done in houses and other occupied buildings

It is in parallel, so one light can be on while others are turned off.

True or false virtual images are always inverted

Electric fences are not connected to the ground in the circuit

A short answer:

An electric fence is connected to the ground only when an animal or a human being touches it to complete a circuit from the fence to the ground.

A longer answer:

The wires of an electric fence are not connected directly to the ground because, if that was done, the fence would be shorted out and would not be able to do its job!

This is how an electric fence is actually hooked-up: the electric fence is connected to one side of a specially designed high voltage source and the return side of that source is connected to the ground.

Then, whenever the skin of any animal - or human - touches the wire whilst standing on the ground in bare feet, they get a high-voltage (10,000) DC electric pulse from the electric fence. The shocks are designed to be only enough to make them jump back from the fence, not to "electrocute" them so badly as to cause serious injury or death.

A 120 V power supply connected to a 30 ohm resistor will produce how many amps of current

A 120V power supply connected to a 30 Ohm resistor will produce 120/30 or 4 amps of current.

What has the lowest frequency on the electromagnetic spectrum

radio waves has lowest frequency in electromagnetic spectrum

What occurs to current in a circuit when voltage is increased

It increases

Why do radio waves travel faster than the sound wave

Radio waves are just low frequency light waves. They travel at the speed of light, much faster than sound waves which are just changes in pressure traveling in waves
