| name 3 uses of static electricity | restarting the heart- defibrillators; reducing smoke particles in chimneys- dust precipitators; spraying |
| explain how defibrillators work | paddles charged+put in good electrical contact with patient's chest; defibrillator discharges into patient; charge passes through them to make the heart contract |
| how do dust precipitators remove smoke particles from chimneys?? | dust passes through charged metal plates/grids; becomes charged; attracted to earthed plates; forms larger particles; falls back down chimney |
| the metal plates in dust precipitators are at a high what?? | voltage |
