How are current and static electricity related?
Current electricity is the flow of electrons through a conductor, while static electricity is the buildup of electric charge on an object. Both are manifestations of the fundamental force of electromagnetism. Static electricity can discharge to become current electricity under certain conditions.
How can I prevent getting a static shock from a treadmill?
To prevent getting a static shock from a treadmill, you can wear anti-static shoes or clothing, place an anti-static mat under the treadmill, or use a humidifier in the room to reduce static electricity buildup.
Can static electricity other than lgihtning kill you?
Although rare, a buildup of static electricity can potentially cause harm or injury if discharged in large amounts or under certain conditions. However, the amount of energy involved is typically much lower than that of a lightning strike, so the risk of static electricity causing death is very low.
What does the Tesla coil have to do with static electricity?
In 1901 Nikola Tesla was one the first to identify "radiant energy." Tesla says that the source of this energy is our Sun. He concluded that the Sun emits small particles, each carrying so small of a charge, that they move with great velocity, exceeding that of light. When radiant energy is cooled down it becomes static electricy. That is why in places when it is cold, rubbing feets in the carpet makes a static discharge. Nikola Tesla was born in a midnight under a lightning storm which some people believe he was prone to understand eletricity.
How do you make static electricity with a carpet and plastic wrap?
get plastic wrap and put your hands and feet on the ground like you are about to crawl. put the palstic rap under your hands and feet. ( while still looking like your about to crawl) and move back and forth!!!! - SIDNIE

Does wet-cell batteries and dry-cell batteries produce static electricity?
Yes. You can use a battery to charge a capacitor, which is an electrical device that stores static charge.
What is known for high voltage low current and starting fires?
Under the correct atmospheric conditions, static electricity can start a fire. It is for this reason that all electrical equipment and equipment that can cause a static electrical build up is grounded.

What are the production steps in a hydroelectric power plant?
A dam is built on the river and water gathers behind the dam.Water, under pressure, flows through pipes at the bottom of the dam, turning electricity generators.This electricity is fed into the grid and delivered to factories and households?
How do you know static electricity is present?
An electrostatic meter reads static electricity without contact - and is safer to use if very high voltage of static build-up is likely to be present. Under more normal examples of static build-up (in your body, or conductive surface, nylon carpet, etc.) a spark will jump between your finger and the conductive material. As a static spark could cause a fire (in a corn mill, and in sensitive production processes, etc.) all the equipment will be earthed.
What is the meaning of blister?
of Blister
What is the purpose of the wire that drags ground under shopping carts at Walmart and Target?
It's supposed to be the ground wire...to keep the shopping carts from building up static electricity.
How much of the US's current energy production comes from nuclear energy?
For electricity production, just under 20 percent

Is a silicon better conductor of an electric current than sulfur?
Yes, silicon is a better conductor of electric current than sulfur. Silicon is a semiconductor that can conduct electricity under certain conditions, while sulfur is an insulator that does not conduct electricity well.
