Electricity - Coggle Diagram
Electricity
Static Electricity
Atoms
Proton(+)
Normally balance out, most matters are electrically neutral
Neutron
Electron(-)
Almost insignificant in Mass
Rubbing friction can give loosely bound electrons (enough energy to attach to other atoms)
The first object becomes positively charged (electrons leave, there are more protons)
Charge imbalance, or net charge separation
Charge imbalance also appears on clouds
Circulation of water drops and ice particles?
Neutralized by lightenings released toward another body
Building, earth, or between other clouds
Metal is a conductor, higher chance to interact with charge imbalance on clouds
Second object with more electrons attached is a negative charge
If two interact, electrons will move to the positively charged object
restore the neutral charge equilibrium
This movement of Electrons are called static discharge
Mostly happen on conductors
Doesn't happen on insulators
CreateElectrical Charge
Electrical Charge: Property of Matter
Buildup of Electrical Charges
Result of Electrical Charges
Positive charge
Positive & Positive: repel
Positive & Negative: attract
Negative charge
Negative & Negative: repel
