Because it has no charge
Static electricity has no charge. This means that it doesn't move. The electrons in the wire that are pumped around the circuit by the battery do move and thus have charge. You can only use power that has a charge or "moves".
Lightning is an example of static electricity
Static Electricity.
A static charge of electricity will be the result.
An example is rubbing your head with a balloon. If you rubbed hard enough, your hair should stand up. Also, when you are VERY close to lightning, your hair stands up!!

The flow of electrons or the existence of a static charge.
Static means it doesn't move. This is essentially what static electricity is, a charge tht has no current. It is made by the transfer of electrons, as a pose to a cell or battery.
One example of static electricity is when you drag your feet across the floor and then shock someone. The shock is the static electricity.
Static electricity DOES have an electric charge.
The build up of a charge on an object can be referred to as a static build up charge.
Static electricity is also known as electrostatic charge or static charge.
Everything is made up of atoms and they hold electrons, protons and neutrons. Electrons can move. Static electricity is the presence of either too many electrons (negative charge) or too few electrons (positive charge). The movement of static electricity ... normally called an "electric current" ... is the flow of electrons from one place to another.
Static charge refers to the imbalance of electric charges on an object's surface, while static electricity is the result of the buildup of this static charge. Static electricity can manifest as phenomena such as sparks or shocks when the charges are discharged.
True. Lightning is a natural example of static electricity, which occurs when there is a build-up of electrical charge in the atmosphere that discharges in the form of a lightning bolt.

Explanation of Materials that Cause Static Electricity. ... "Flyaway hair" is a good example of having a moderate positive (+) charge. Nylon. Wool. Lead ... It is surprising that these metals attract electrons almost as much as polyester. Polyester.
