What is the type of electricity you create by rubbing a balloon on your head?

Static electricity.


Can CPVC pipe create static electricity when heated?

Yes, CPVC pipe can create static electricity when heated. The friction generated during the heating process can lead to a buildup of static electricity on the surface of the pipe. It is important to take precautions and properly ground the pipe to avoid any potential hazards associated with static electricity.


What type of charge can create static electricity?

Both positive and negative charges can create static electricity. When certain materials are rubbed together, electrons can be transferred from one material to another, resulting in an imbalance of positive and negative charges and the buildup of static electricity.


How is static electricity used in dust removal and photo copying?

Static electricity is used in dust removal by charging a surface with static electricity, which attracts and captures dust particles by electrostatic forces. In photocopying, static electricity is used to transfer toner particles onto a charged surface and then fuse them to create a copy of the original document.


What is the relationship between static electricity and voltage?

Static electricity is a buildup of electric charge on an object, while voltage is the measure of electric potential difference between two points. The relationship between static electricity and voltage is that static electricity can create a voltage difference when there is a buildup of charge, leading to the potential for electrical discharge or sparks.

What are dangers of static electricity?

Lightning is a discharge of static electricity that is potentially dangerous. Also, it may be a very small chance, but it is possible for static electricity to ignite the gasoline vapors during a fill up at the gas station.


The difference-relationship between static and current electricity?

Static electricity is the buildup of electric charge on the surface of an object, while current electricity is the flow of electric charge through a conductor. Static electricity involves stationary charges, whereas current electricity involves moving charges. When static electricity is discharged, it can create a current flow.


What is static electricity and why is this name used?

Static electricity is when a group of atoms form together. When friction happens atoms create a negative charge and a shock is formed.
