The imbalance between the positive and negative charge within on object causes the discharge of electrical pulse known as static electricity .

We can create a static electricity charge by rubbing two surface in contact that are at some distance .

Also at least one of the surface has a high resistance to electric current {and is therefore , an electrical insulator so, this is how static current is produced

Types of Charges:There are two types of electric charges: positive and negative. Like charges repel each other, while opposite charges attract.

how does static electricity occur ?

It occurs when tiny particles called electrons move from one object to another.

When two different materials touch, they can transfer electrons between them.

You might feel a shock when you touch something after walking on a carpet due to built-up static electricity.

Rubbing a balloon on your hair can make your hair stand up because of static electricity.

Static electricity is useful in everyday life, such as in printers and photocopiers.
