Static Electricity Everything is made up of tiny particles called atoms. The atoms are made up of even smaller parts called protons‚ electrons and neutrons. Protons have a positive charge (+)‚ electrons have a negative charge (-) and neutrons have no charge at all‚ they are neutral. Atoms normally have the same amount of electrons and protons‚ making them neutral and having no charge. When rubbing things together‚ electrons can move from one atom to another‚ resulting in some atoms having extra

The belt is made of rubber and the lower roller is covered in silicon tape‚ the lower roller begins to build a negative charge and the belt builds a positive charge. Silicon is more negative than rubber so the lower roller is receiving electrons from the belt when it goes over the roller. The positively charged atomic nuclei‚ try to
