Hi
Differentiate between static and current electricity.
Static electricity is different from current electricity in the following ways -:
1. Static electricity is caused by the build-up of electrical charges on the surface of objects, while current electricity is a phenomenon from the flow of electrons along a conductor. 2. When objects are rubbed, a loss and/or gain of electrons occurs, which results in the phenomenon of static electricity. 3. Current electricity is normally controlled, and it is the more used phenomenon of electricity, in countless applications. 4. Static electricity is usually uncontrolled and just happens sporadically. 5. Current electricity is generated by batteries and power plants.
