Question

Electricity:
Aditi walks across a carpet and touches the
metal door knob or a metallic object, what will
happen? Give reason by showing the process

Answer 1

Answer:

We call this built-up electric charge "static electricity." ... As you walk over carpet in socks, your feet rub electrons off the carpet, leaving you with a slightly negative static charge. When you reach for a doorknob, you get a shock as electrons jump from you to the knob, which conducts electricity.
