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.
