When you scuff your shoes across a nylon carpet produce a dynamic electricity
When passing a comb through dry hair produce a static electricity
Charge is a scalar and is measured in coulombs
Electricity is not the flow of electrical charges or power.
electrical energy is a secondary energy source which means
that we get it from the conversion of other sources of energy
Electric charge can’t be measured using the law for the forces between charges(Coulomb’s Law).
It is called static because the charges flow through the conductor.
Lightning is static electricity due to charges in clouds, and it can damage buildings and harm people.
Static electricity is caused by the movement of free electrons in a conductor.
Like charges attract each other, and opposite charges repel each other.
Electrostatic induction requires physical contact between two objects.
Electric charge is a vector quantity.
The SI unit of electric charge is the volt(V).
Electricity or electrical energy is a Primary energy source which means that we getit from the conversion of other sources of energy
Insulators are materials in which charges can move about freely
insulators are materials in which electric charge is not easily transported
Electric charge can be measured using the law for the forces between charges (Newton’s Law).
The word Dynamic means stationary or not moving since the charges do not flow through the conductor but only transfer from one substance to another
The branch of physics that deals with the study of electrified or charged bodies, on which the electric charge is at rest, is called electrostatic physics.
The electricity so produced by friction (rubbing) is static electricity
