- Static charge is built up when you rub things together.
- Static charge build up when solid materials come in contact
- One object would be very negatively charged, and the other would be very positively charged. 
- This happens because one object would attract all the negative electrons from the other object.

For Example:
- Socks and Carpet rubbing against each other
- When someone is taking off a wool sweater, and the sweater rubs against the person's hair.]]> 2016-10-13 02:08:18 UTC https://padlet.com/yiweiho/mzmvm2w3rtdr/wish/130314368 yiweiho https://padlet.com/yiweiho/mzmvm2w3rtdr/wish/130314961 - Can cause painful shock
- Can affect electronics
- If come in contact with gasoline, or flammable liquids, can cause explosion.
- Can provide ignition in flammable/ explosive objects.
-  A sensitive spark can damage/ affect the substance or materials in an electronic.]]> 2016-10-13 02:13:28 UTC https://padlet.com/yiweiho/mzmvm2w3rtdr/wish/130314961 yiweiho https://padlet.com/yiweiho/mzmvm2w3rtdr/wish/130315606 -  Static electricity can be stored using capacitors, and we can use it, after it is stored.
- Static electricity is used in photocopiers when laser of lights scan on the paper.]]> 2016-10-13 02:19:08 UTC https://padlet.com/yiweiho/mzmvm2w3rtdr/wish/130315606
