How do they differ each other static &current electricity?

0

Static electricity is just that, static. It’s not moving. It is a buildup of excess electrical charge in some object that most often is the result of friction between two objects. When electrically charged particles start to move, then you have a current. An electrical current is charged particles in motion. So, for example, water droplets bump around in a cloud and they become electrically charged, but initially this charge static. This charged is released as the electrically charged particles move creating the sparks that we know as lightning, thus creating a current.
