Static charge also known as static electricity |
Refers to an electric charges that can be collected and held in one place |
|
Atoms |
Adams are tiny particles and all matter is made of Adams |
|
Protons |
Have a positive charge so the nucleus is positively charged |
|
Electrons |
Are around the positive nucleus and are much lighter particles they have a negative charge |
|
Neutral |
The Adam is uncharged |
|
Insulators |
Materials that do not allow charges to move easily |
|
Conductors |
Materials that allow electrons to travel freely |
|
Coulomb |
The unit of electrical charge |
|
Coulomb |
