What Is Static
Electricity? A stationary
electrical charge
that is built up on
the surface of a
material

Two kinds of charges
After being rubbed, aplastic ruler can attract
paper scraps.
Ruler carries electric charge.It exerts electric force on paper.
The interaction between static electric charges is called
electrostatics.
This charging method is called charging by friction.

Insulators and conductors
Insulators: materials that do NOT allow
electrons to flow through them easily.
Insulators can be easily charged by friction as the extra
electrons gained CANNOT easily escape.

4 Insulators and conductors
Conductors: materials that allow electrons to flow
through them easily.
Conductors CANNOT be easily charged by friction as
the extra electrons gained can easily escape.

Gas Station Fires
Carol said a static gas pump fire is blamed forburning her daughter so badly she needed skingrafts on her legs.
Carol had put the gas pump nozzle on automaticand re-entered her car to write a check. When herthen-12-year-old daughter, wearing a sweater and
jacket that may have created static electricity,reached for the nozzle, flames suddenly ignited herclothing.

Grounding
An object is grounded when it is connected
to the earth through a connecting wire.
What is grounding?
If a charged conductor is grounded, it
will become neutral.

produced and _________ will occur if gasoline vapor is
ignited. Those metal chains conduct the charge on thebodies of tankers to the _______ and avoid the danger.
