Is static electricity caused by opposite charges?
Yes, static electricity is caused by the buildup of electric charge on the surface of an object. This charge imbalance can occur when two objects with opposite charges come into contact and become separated, creating a static charge.
What is the opposite of static electricity?
"Fenetic"- No, that doesn't exist. I'm not sure what is the opposite of static electricity yet. Static Electricity is a stationary electric charge or a stationary electric charge that builds up on an insulated object such as a capacitor or a thundercloud
Why would a balloon with static charge stick to a wall?
When a balloon becomes charged with static electricity, it can create an attractive force with the opposite charge on the wall. This attraction causes the balloon to stick to the wall temporarily. The static charge on the balloon and the wall interact to create this phenomenon.
Does static stay in one place?
Yes, static electricity occurs when there is a buildup of electric charge on an object's surface. The charge remains stationary until it is discharged by coming into contact with a conductor or another object with opposite charge.
Why does a balloon that has has static electric charge stick to the wall?
A balloon that has a static electric charge can stick to a wall because opposite charges attract each other. The balloon carries a negative charge, while the wall carries a positive charge (due to electrons being transferred from the wall to the balloon). This attraction between the opposite charges causes the balloon to stick to the wall.

Why is paper attracted to negatively charged balloon?
opposite electric charge
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...
Why would a balloon with static charge stick to a wall?
When a balloon becomes charged with static electricity, it can create an attractive force with the opposite charge on the wall. This attraction causes the balloon to stick to the wall temporarily. The static charge on the balloon and the wall interact to create this phenomenon.
Electrons have what type of a charge?
All electrons have an equal negative charge (-1 standard electron charge), which is opposite to the standard proton charge (+1).
Does static stay in one place?
Yes, static electricity occurs when there is a buildup of electric charge on an object's surface. The charge remains stationary until it is discharged by coming into contact with a conductor or another object with opposite charge.
Why does a balloon that has has static electric charge stick to the wall?
A balloon that has a static electric charge can stick to a wall because opposite charges attract each other. The balloon carries a negative charge, while the wall carries a positive charge (due to electrons being transferred from the wall to the balloon). This attraction between the opposite charges causes the balloon to stick to the wall.
How can static electricity be used to control air pollution?
Factories use static electricity to reduce pollution coming from their smokestacks. They give the smoke an electric charge. When it passes by an electrode of the opposite charge, most of the smoke particles cling to the electrode. This keeps the pollution from going out into the atmosphere. the static charge has negative and positive charges
Why a balloon that has a static electric charge will stick to a wall?
When a balloon carries a static electric charge, it can induce an opposite charge on the wall it approaches. These opposite charges attract each other, causing the balloon to stick to the wall due to electrostatic forces.
How does static elctricity related to charge?
Static electricity is related to charge because it involves the buildup of excess electric charge on an object's surface. When objects with opposite charges come into contact or rub against each other, one object can transfer electrons to the other, resulting in a charge imbalance that causes static electricity. This charge separation can create attractive or repulsive forces between objects.
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.
