What is electricity? 🔋 Types of Electricity 💡

To produce electricity we can use energy from natural resources such as fossil fuels, wind, water and the sun. The energy is transported in different ways (e.g. through cables) and stored in cells or batteries. Static electricity is the accumulation of excess electric charge, positive or negative found in everything around us, including ourselves. Positive and negative charges attract, so sometimes static electricity causes two objects to attract each other. On the other hand, when two objects have the same charge, they move away from each other or repel. The electricity we receive in our homes is called dynamic electricity. Dynamic electricity is the flow of electric charges. This video is the perfect educational resource for elementary school science.
