Explain how an insulator is charged Rubbing the insulator caused friction which transfers electrons onto, or from, the object.
State the charge on an object that has gained electrons Negative
State the charge on an object that has lost electrons Positive

Describe the interaction between unlike charges e.g. positive - negative Attract
Explain the process of earthing Earthing removes excess charge by allowing electrons to flow onto or from an object
Explain the advantages of electrostatic paint sprays and insecticide sprays The droplets have like charges so they repel and spread out. It will also be attracted to uncharged objects.
Describe the dangers of electrostatic charges when refuelling a vehicle A spark can ignite the fuel causing an explosion
