Why a conductor will not produce static electricity?
A conductor will not produce static electricity because electrons in the conductor are free to move around easily. This means any excess charge will be quickly redistributed throughout the conductor, preventing the buildup of static electricity.
Electrons that move from one object to another and then remain at rest produce?
static electricity
Does static electricity move?
yes, static electricity travels to sharp edges.
How can you move a drinks can with a balloon?
You can move a drinks can with a balloon by creating static electricity on the balloon and then using that static charge to attract the can. Rub the balloon against your hair or a piece of fabric to generate static electricity, then hold the balloon near the can to make it move. The can will be attracted to the charged balloon due to static electricity.
Why does an insulator not lose its charge?
the dust particles keep the electrons inside and remake them they dust particles can be swept off but a few remain inside the insulator!!! this is very confusing!!! :) Static electricity can't move in an insulator and it will only lose it's charge if it is earthed.
Why cant conductors generate static electricity when rubbed together?
Static electricity causes electrons to move from one material to the other. In an insulator, these electrons can't flow back to equalise the charges, whereas in a conductor they can; so whilst they could conceivably generate static electricity, it would be lost as quickly as it was made.
Is ebonite a conductor?
No, ebonite is an insulator and does not conduct electricity. It is a type of hard rubber that is known for its electrical insulating properties.
What is useful about static electricity?
You can move things with static electricity!
What does static electricity constitute?
Static electricity constitutes of charges that are static i.e. they do not move.
What do you call electricity you doesn't move?
Static electricity.
What does static eletiricity mean?
Static in static electricity means still because it does not move, unlike regular electricity.
What is the of static electricity as charges move off an object?
Static
