Even after reading the article I find the simple explanation quite convincing.
Is the explanation for static electricity from rubbing dissimilar materials together also not entirely correct?
- mpyne 12y agoWell the explanation of an imbalance of charge accumulation causing static electricity is still simple and correct. The hard part I think is giving a simple explanation for why rubbing some materials together causes the charge carriers to preferentially end up on one of the materials being rubbed.
