Generotion of Static Electric

Electric effect can be seen only when electrons are removed from one atom and transferred to another, even if process is on the same material. Theelectric effect is caused by the attraction and repulsion between opposite charged ions.

The number of electrons transferred in any charging process is enormous. Here are some examples. If a powder such as sugar or flour slides down along a tube and sticks to its wall, the charge on each tiny particle will vary from 10-14 to 10-13 C. i.e. from 100.000 to 1 million of electrons transferred to every particle particularly . Powder sliding down along the tube has often a specific charge, that it is about 10-7 C per 1 kg.

Walked on a carpet person is stricken a current, when touches a doorknob that is charged 10-7 C. Or a plastic folder rubbed with piece of cloth or fur used to produce a charge in 10-7 C. per sheet.
