    This document discusses static electricity and how objects become electrically charged. It defines static electricity as an imbalance of electric charges within or on the surface of a material. It then describes the three main processes by which an object can become charged: 1) charging by friction, where rubbing two objects together causes a transfer of electrons; 2) charging by conduction, where an uncharged object becomes charged by contact with a charged object; and 3) charging by induction, where an uncharged object becomes charged by being near a charged object without contact.

    WHAT IS A STATIC
    ELECTRICITY?
    STATIC ELECTRICITY IS AN IMBALANCE OF ELECTRIC
    CHARGES WITHIN OR ON THE SURFACE OF A
    MATERIAL OR BETWEEN MATERIALS. THE CHARGE
    REMAINS UNTIL IT IS ABLE TO MOVE AWAY BY
    MEANS OF AN ELECTRIC CURRENT OR ELECTRICAL
    DISCHARGE.
    PROCESS OF CHARGING
    CHARGING BY FRICTION
    CHARGING BY CONDUCTION
    CHARGING BY INDUCTION
    CHARGING BY FRICTION
    WHEN TWO OBJECTS ARE RUBBED AGAINST
    EACH OTHER, CHARGE TRANSFER TAKES PLACE.
    ONE OF THE OBJECTS LOSES ELECTRONS WHILE
    THE OTHER OBJECT GAINS ELECTRONS.
    CHARGING BY CONDUCTION
    THE METHOD OF CHARGING AN UNCHARGED OBJECT
    BY BRINGING IT CLOSE AND IN CONTACT WITH A
    CHARGED OBJECT IS KNOWN AS CHARGING BY
    CONDUCTION.
    CHARGING BY INDUCTION
    THE PROCESS OF CHARGING AN
    UNCHARGED CONDUCTOR BY
    BRINGING IT NEAR A CHARGED
    CONDUCTOR WITHOUT ANY
    PHYSICAL CONTACT IS KNOWN AS
    CHARGING BY INDUCTION.
