What is static electricity?

If you think you know what static electricity is think again. Static means still and you know what electricity is so it means still electricity. 

          The reason it's called static electricity is that if you rub or move         something quickly on two different surfaces energy builds up and then gets transferred to the other object or surface.

This energy only works if the surface or object you're using is different to each other like if you have positive surface and a positive object they will repel each other, but when you put a negative and a positive they will be attracted to each other, almost as if they were magnets.  

Atoms are made out of neutrons, protons and electrons and did you know that protons and neutrons are in the inside and then electrons are on the outside that spin around the protons and neutrons.

              Did you know that 70% percent of people survive getting struck by lighting even though it is so powerful and dangerous.
