2. Static means… Still, or not moving.
So Static electricity is electricity that is not moving.
3. Electricity is… The moving of electrons.
4. B. Conductors Conductor
material that allows electrons to move through it easily
e- are loosely held
ex: metals like copper and silver
5. C. Insulators Insulator
material that doesn’t allow electrons to move through it easily
e- are tightly held
ex: plastic, wood, rubber, glass
6. Charges Electrons are negatively charged.
Protons are Positively charged.
Neutrons are Neutral.
Opposites attract.
7. A. Static Electricity Static Electricity
the net accumulation of electric charges on an object
Electric Field
force exerted by an e- on anything that has an electric charge
opposite charges attract
like charges repel
8. A. Static Electricity Static Discharge
the movement of electrons to relieve a separation in charge
10. D. Electroscope Electroscope
instrument that detects the presence of electrical charges
leaves separate when they gain either a + or - charge
