Beginning of paper
is electricity at rest, which is an accumulation
of electric charge. This source of energy is the opposite of moving
electric charge, known as electric current. It is part of the study of
phenomena resulting from electric charge, called electrostatics.

.... was named the law of electrical
charges, and is essential to the understanding of electricity. A third idea
was that if the distance between electric charges is increased, the force
of attraction or repulsion decreases.
All matter is made up of very tiny particles called atoms. Atoms
are made up of even smaller substances called subatomic particles.
Scientific studies have found that some of these subatomic particles are
charged with electricity. The electric charges are made up of two kin ....
