1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:07,419 Hello and welcome to another natural science video. Today the two types we have to learn 2 00:00:07,419 --> 00:00:14,560 about electricity, static and current electricity. Here we go. Static electricity. Static electricity 3 00:00:14,560 --> 00:00:21,260 gathers in one place, se acumula, stays in one place. Examples that you know, a balloon, 4 00:00:21,859 --> 00:00:27,640 when you touch a metal, or when you comb your hair. I really hate when this happens, you know. 5 00:00:27,640 --> 00:00:46,100 Okay. Static electricity. Look at the example that you have in your book. It's on page 70. Look, this is how it happens. Static electricity occurs when there is an imbalance, a disequilibrio, of positive and negative charges between two electrical scintillators. 6 00:00:46,100 --> 00:00:50,100 Electrons, in this case from the boy you get in the picture, 7 00:00:50,100 --> 00:00:55,100 rub off onto the floor, onto the carpet, and he is positively charged. 8 00:00:55,100 --> 00:01:01,100 Opposite charges, remember they attract the electrons of a negatively charged object, 9 00:01:01,100 --> 00:01:04,099 are attracted to a positively charged object. 10 00:01:04,099 --> 00:01:09,099 When lots of electrons move at the same time you may see the spark 11 00:01:09,099 --> 00:01:15,099 or you feel like a small shock, like when you touch the metal door in this case. 12 00:01:15,099 --> 00:01:21,260 this case now another or the most important example of static electricity in nature 13 00:01:22,299 --> 00:01:28,859 are lightnings look at the picture lining how they happen look rain clouds they move 14 00:01:29,500 --> 00:01:37,340 very fast okay you are ready for a storm and water air and ice particles inside the 15 00:01:38,140 --> 00:01:44,700 cloud they rub against each other and they create the static electrical charge finally 16 00:01:44,700 --> 00:01:51,420 when the charge is big enough clouds release the energy and which we can see as as a light 17 00:01:52,459 --> 00:01:59,819 the other term current electricity it flows it moves the electricity you have at home 18 00:01:59,819 --> 00:02:07,659 okay electrons pass quickly from one atom to another within certain materials here it's 19 00:02:07,659 --> 00:02:12,939 important that we distinguish this type of materials because we got conductors and insulators 20 00:02:12,939 --> 00:02:19,419 look at them for example silver gold copper steel and sea water they are good conductors or 21 00:02:19,419 --> 00:02:25,979 insulators they are very good conductors good electrical conductors like wires and other metal 22 00:02:25,979 --> 00:02:31,419 objects allow electricity to travel through them easily okay be careful especially with water you 23 00:02:31,419 --> 00:02:38,219 know this then rubber glass oil a diamond wood which when it's dry and since they're getting 24 00:02:38,219 --> 00:02:44,780 water they are electrical insulators rubber plastic woods do not allow electricity to pass 25 00:02:44,780 --> 00:02:51,099 through them finally look at this example the electrical circuits this is the electricity you 26 00:02:51,099 --> 00:02:57,120 get at home an electrical circuit allows electrons to flow through a path we get the wires those 27 00:02:57,120 --> 00:03:02,199 cables they conduct the electricity okay then the power source that provides the electrical energy 28 00:03:02,199 --> 00:03:09,960 for example a battery, okay, una pila, or then you need the switch. The switch opens and closes the 29 00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:15,560 circuits and you can stop the flow of electricity when you turn on or you turn off the lights at 30 00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:23,000 home. And finally a resistor. The resistor, una resistencia, is the object that transforms the 31 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:28,280 electricity into another form of energy. For example the light bulb is a resistor and it 32 00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:34,280 it transforms electricity into lights this is its static and current 33 00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:38,840 electricity I hope you understand if not you know you can ask and see you 34 00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:42,460 tomorrow all right goodbye
