Uses of Static Electricity Description

Pollution Control Static electricity is used in pollution control by applying a static charge to dirt particles in the air and then collecting those charged particles on a plate or collector of the opposite electrical charge.

Spray painting car parts By connecting the spray nozzle to a negative electrode, it is possible to charge each droplet of paint. If the car part is then given the opposite charge, the paint droplets will be attracted to the car body part.

Photocopy Copy machines use static to make ink get attracted to the areas where we need the information copied.

Static electricity

Bending water is an example of static electricity you can use a rod or a ruler and rub it against your hair or a cloth so electons can be moved and when you put the rod near water it bends.




Lightening is an example of static discharge, it is unclear why that happens but the initial charge seperation is thought to be associated with contact between ice particles within storm clouds.



This is another example showing a girl touching a static electricity generator which is moving electrons up to the girls hair and then the hair separates.
