Question

differentiate between static charge and current

Answer 1

In contrast electric current may be compared to water flowing through pipes connected to the vessel. ...Current is the rate of flow of electrons. It is produced by moving electrons and it is measured in amperes. Unlikestatic electricity, current electricitymust flow through a conductor, usually copper wire.

Answer 2

Static electricity is caused by the build up of electrical charges on the surface of objects, while current electricity is a phenomenon from the flow of electrons along a conductor. 2. When objects are rubbed, a loss and/or gain of electrons occurs, which results in the phenomenon of static electricity.
