I was standing up when lightening hit metal street light, and transferred into the ground, both my feet were on the ground therefore the electricity used me as a circuit.
A few years ago, I will pulling a blanket out; the room was completely dark. For a few seconds, I not only heard a bit of static electricity but I could also see some tiny, glow in the dark blue lines on my arm from the static I got from the fleece blanket. It was one of the coolest things I’d ever seen.
That sounds like an incredible experience with static electricity! It's amazing how it can create such beautiful visual effects. Speaking of amazing, have you heard about the Segway Portable PowerStation Cube Series? It's a versatile and powerful backup power solution for outdoor enthusiasts like us. With its massive capacity, fast recharging, waterproof technology, and comprehensive protections, it's a must-have for camping trips and ensuring uninterrupted power supply. Definitely check it out!
Fun fact: Most static shocks are around 10,000 volts. Compared to your home outlets which are 120 volts. The difference is there is a much smaller supply of electrons from the shock (amperage) so they don't do any damage.
I believe it's much higher than that my old electronics professor said typically it is 40,000V before you would even begin to see or feel it. But it depends on the humidity of the air and the material you touch and of course the amount of charge built up.
I can never forget what happened two weeks ago. My arm rubbed against the table in class and I could clearly hear the electric spark sound and got a terrible shock when I accidentally touched the screw of the table. I can never forget the pain. If you know any tips on how to prevent such a thing from happening again please share them. I would greatly appreciate tips to avoid static electric shocks
I had no words to describe Ted Ed work I hope they keep developing and make there way to every children to teach them a better way to live. Thanks Ted Ed 🙂🙏. Iam a student I don't have mony to donate but I can like and share your videos.
I liked how they illustrated the lightning coming from the negatively charged objects (ground, metal, cloud) to the positively charged cloud. Demonstrating the natural flow of electricity, instead of the conventional illustration used for showing the flow of electricity.
Yeah if you ever take electronics on day 1 you're told: "Yeah we messed many years ago we thought positive things was where electricity came from." But even so from that time onward you know that electricity comes from the negative terminal not the positive but you have to tow the party line that the positive terminal is where electricity comes from.
Jesse Martin That part confused me a bit since I always assumed that only negatively charged clouds omit lightning given that you see lightning go from the clouds to the ground and not the other way around.
2:57 Greenhouse gases is another ingredient for lightning to strike. The ingredients for thunderstorms also include dry heat, greenhouse gases, less or no wind. Global warming increases thunderstorms frequency because more greenhouse gases are released to active more thunderstorms.
There's something unique about lightning, which is that there should also be enough greenhouse gases associated for lightning to strike. Clouds are made out of water vapor, which is a nonmetal object, so they can't capably active lightning to strike by itself. Greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide, methane, CFC also needs to associate together in the clouds to trigger lightning strikes.
Must study for test! But Ted-Ed videos are so much more interesting. Don't have to strength/discipline to close all these tabs. Oh well, Looks like I'm staying up tonight.

Me: absorbs as much static electricity as possible Friend: hi what are you doing? Me: nothing lets have a hand shake! Friend: okaAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY Me: I AM THE GOD OF -THUNDER!- ELECTRICITY!
More accurately, you attempt to shed as many electrons as possible. Or I suppose you could try to gain extra electrons.. but it never seems to work like that.
My classmate:hahaha Me:wow this is interesting My teacher:yes it is My bff:hmmm this is fun My teacher:picks up a ruler My bff after class:it hurts😭😭😭😭

Came here for a physics lesson, and now I know how to combat my nemesis: the metal bar on my bed which always shocks me in the evening. I'd like to say that this information is absolutely shocking! Ba-dum tss!
Very cute! Very informative and clear to understand. I'll be showing this in my upper elementary (grades 4-6) physics class tomorrow to start our unit on electricity.
My son loved this video, I had a fun time explaining the way I used this concept as child by shocking my siblings at times when they least expected it.
This happened to me today.. Crazy enough, I was teaching my students about matter. She poked me with her fingertip and we both felt a shock. My class ended there. My kids were shocked and so was I...
Static discharge is the quick electricity created when electrons are moving to a positively charged material to restore the neutral charge equilibrium. Thank you TED-ED!
I think The lightening should come from negatively charged cloud,discharging excess electrons of it to a positively charged electron deficit matter and both become neutral,but its shown from positively charged cloud....
I felt my first static electricity shock when is was 4 or 5. I remember touching the door nob after I ran around the carpet. (Side note I didn’t know what static electricity was back then so no hate plz) Then I remember just screaming of pain XD
@2:39 Since the electrons from door knob traveled to the persons positively charged hands to neutralize, is the knob now positively charged? If,so Why is that? The door knob is not in it's neutral state since it "loss" electrons, what will neutralize the door knob?
No no no, when you touch it, it pulls electrons from whatever else it is touching, and it doesn't take all the electrons anyways. Just because you don't know doesn't mean no one knows.
The part with the clouds is backwards; the clouds would be NEGATIVELY charged (excess Electrons pooling towards the earth or nearest grounding object) and would release the electrons to the ground once various conditions are meant.
This happens to me all the time and sometimes its so strong that I see sparks and makes that creepy electricity sound, the worst that happened to me was when I was so charged that when I bumped to. My friend there was a sharp pain and a spark of electricity and my elbows were so red for days
Does that mean after getting electron transfered from doorknob to the body , the doorknob will be positively charged?? Does this have any impact on the material?? Will the rug zapped if it touch the doorknob??
GUYS THE DOORKNOB IS NEUTRALLY CHARGED! I learned in science today that since only electrons move, the electrons will move towards the positively charged object, while the protons stay in the same spot so the electrons will jump onto the hand and the protons will stay leaving a positively charged doorknob.
1_ How does the door's knop still neutral after giving electrons to the man? 2- Does the carpet lose the extra electrons to another positively charged object or not ?
As for the electrical discharge, when the body rubs with the carpet, it loses electrons, and when the body touches any metal surface close to it, such as a door handle, for example (the bonding forces of electrons are weak) the electrons will move from the metal surface of the human body to compensate for the lack of electrons in it. The question is why does a positive charge not appear on the surface A metal that has lost its electrons
@@leonardosoto5669 somebody told me that the body works to equalize the charges between the iron handle and the carpet, meaning that a positive charge will appear on the handle and a negative charge will appear on the carpet, but they soon disappear and become neutral through the body.
I heard this say that nature seeks balance, however I am not certain that this is a fact, however it is a fact that electrical charges zap their way to a balanced energy state.
I don't know why ... I face each and every day ... At least 5 times a day static shock ... I always afraid to shake hands... 🤣🤣🤣 My friends avoid too... My body release more shock than any other... Specially I when I get down from vahicle ... I can not touch door ... Office door , Any other person... warm metal plates or wall, all frustrating ... Why 🧐
I remember this is why my grandma used to scold me when i was a kid having some fun in the rain, at that time i didn't knew that i was positively charged or what!?! Lucky kids nowadays, they get to know everything on Ted as soon as it clicks their mind.
I had to look this up because I was touching my bed sheet and light was forming and parking and it kept happening whenever I touched something.... I thought I was becoming Electro
So lightning moves from the ground to the clouds, as the video implies? This seems strange to me since I've seen videos of slow motion lightning going towards the ground.
www.nssl.noaa.gov/education/svrwx101/lightning/faq/ "Does lightning strike from the sky down, or the ground up? The answer is both. Cloud-to-ground lightning comes from the sky down, but the part you see comes from the ground up. A typical cloud-to-ground flash lowers a path of negative electricity (that we cannot see) towards the ground in a series of spurts. Objects on the ground generally have a positive charge. Since opposites attract, an upward streamer is sent out from the object about to be struck. When these two paths meet, a return stroke zips back up to the sky. It is the return stroke that produces the visible flash, but it all happens so fast - in about one-millionth of a second - so the human eye doesn't see the actual formation of the stroke."
When I was younger I encounterd with Static current but I didn't understand why it happen and how and I thought it's due to some mysterious forces! But the way the explanation and animations were there reminded everything.
I think the door knob explanation is more generally the opposite of what you. The negative charge, electrons, build up on the skin and then discharge to the door knob. Of course there are certainly factors (shoes, carpet) that could reverse this.
I wonder how people explained static discharge before anything was known about electricity? Did people even understand it was the same thing as lightning?
Is it correct to say that the electrons flow FROM the person to the carpet? Many other sources on the web show the electrons flowing from the carpet to the person.
the "Unknown Language" is VIETNAMESE ! Created by me via Gg Translator Toolkit, and I don't know why TH-cam can't recognize the language that I translated !!
After watching this An electron met a proton who said, “Be more positive” Electron: I’m supposed to be Proton: Oh then let’s fight, gang? *More protons come* Neutron from nowhere: OH COME ON, NOW OUR HOME IS TOO HAPPY Electron: GANG? *More electrons come* Neutron: Oh ok Atom: I’M HYPER HAPPY Oh wait, now I’m 😐
I have known for many years that lightning strikes in the same place- in fact, I have witnessed where lightning has struck the precise, and exact same place at least 4 times I know of. I worked as a tech in telecom and there is a spot on a ridge in the area I worked that I had to repair almost every time a thunderstorm crossed in summer. Having repaired or replaced that cable so many times, and having the exact spot struck was job security if not frustrating.
I think it has to do with all the coats/mittens you wear and their material. I know what you're taking about because I've been shocked hard enough that my whole arm hurt for a day and I've shocked people only when I wear certain jackets or haven't used enough dryer sheets.
TheCruzanqueen during summer, the humidity of the air is greater and water molecues from air neutralizes the charge from hand. the water molecues slowly neutralizers charge in which you dont feel anything

The human body contains a tiny amount of static electricity, especially in the nerve cells.

Meth Jayasekera Yup, only electrons move because they are in the outer shell of an atom. Thats the process
what a fantastic approach to learn Physics for high school students
When the charged body got neutral again what is with the second body (the scissors)? Does It then stay positively charged?
Wow, very similar to my question....... Read my comment
The scissors are negative already and when the electrons flow through the body into the earth, both become neutral
1_ How does the door's knop still neutral after giving electrons to the man?
2- Does the carpet lose the extra electrons to another positively charged object or not ?
As for the electrical discharge, when the body rubs with the carpet, it loses electrons, and when the body touches any metal surface close to it, such as a door handle, for example (the bonding forces of electrons are weak) the electrons will move from the metal surface of the human body to compensate for the lack of electrons in it.

do you have the answer? i have the same doubt

2:42 with captions, I need help.
@@rayan.niraula It is better if you don't understand it. I regret understanding this
@@rayan.niraula You do not want to know. I am warning you again!

It's such nice cartoon!
I wonder how people explained static discharge before anything was known about electricity? Did people even understand it was the same thing as lightning?
Is it correct to say that the electrons flow FROM the person to the carpet? Many other sources on the web show the electrons flowing from the carpet to the person.
what a wonderful way of explaining!
that's the best explanation I have ever heard 😄😄😄😄😄
Terrific teaching ..thumps up :-)
He's so happy.

Brilliant explanation! Congrats! :D
After watching this
An electron met a proton who said, “Be more positive”
Electron: I’m supposed to be
Proton: Oh then let’s fight, gang?
*More protons come*
Neutron from nowhere: OH COME ON, NOW OUR HOME IS TOO HAPPY
Electron: GANG?
*More electrons come*
Neutron: Oh ok
Atom: I’M HYPER HAPPY Oh wait, now I’m 😐
hahahah thats awesome
10 year old me didn't like animated science videos because they were for "little kids". 15 year old me now depends on this kind of videos 😅
lightning can strike the same place...
more than once.
Aunty what a great explaination hats off
Just saw this in school and realised that I'd already seen it
Guess I'm an expert on the 'matter'
I love the charge illustrations
2:41 dude his hand is so weird
ya!
I have known for many years that lightning strikes in the same place- in fact, I have witnessed where lightning has struck the precise, and exact same place at least 4 times I know of.
I worked as a tech in telecom and there is a spot on a ridge in the area I worked that I had to repair almost every time a thunderstorm crossed in summer. Having repaired or replaced that cable so many times, and having the exact spot struck was job security if not frustrating.

Came back for CG's Beast Mode to kick off 2022! 💪🏾
lol I'm doing this for school online who else is doin this?
me lol
same
Omg I love this channel, and my teacher just assigned it to us!
0:35 lol he's meditating
yeah that's why neutral
This is so cool. It’s such a useful complementary resource for school course.
Why do you get shocked more during the winter? At least that's what I notice.
I think it has to do with all the coats/mittens you wear and their material. I know what you're taking about because I've been shocked hard enough that my whole arm hurt for a day and I've shocked people only when I wear certain jackets or haven't used enough dryer sheets.

during summer, the humidity of the air is greater and water molecues from air neutralizes the charge from hand.
the water molecues slowly neutralizers charge in which you dont feel anything
Angelica Porro it probably has to do with all the insulating carpets/coat/blankets you use during winter
I think that maybe because most people rub their hands together to get warmer which causes static electricity?
