What is static electricity?

Static electricity is the build up of a charge that DOES NOT move.

What are the three methods used to build up static charges?

Charging by friction, conduction (contact), and induction

In charging by friction, both objects will end up with the ______ charges

opossite

In charging by conduction, both objects will end up with the ______ charges

same

In charging by induction, both objects will end up with the ______ charges

opposite

What is the law of electric charges?

Like charges repel, unlike charges attract!

What are insulators?

materials that don't allow e- to flow through them

What is a conductor?

materials that allow e- to flow through them

how can we safely remove charge build up?

using a grounding wire :3

what is the electrostatic series

A list of materials arranged in order of their tendency to gain electrons
